SULFURIC ACID (20% OLEUM) Chemical Compatibility

Sulfuric acid 20 percent oleum, also known as fuming sulfuric acid or sulfuric acid containing dissolved sulfur trioxide SO3, is a highly corrosive and strongly dehydrating chemical used in fertilizer production, petroleum refining, and the manufacture of explosives, dyes, and detergents. This dense and reactive acid mixture presents significant hazards due to its ability to cause severe burns and respiratory irritation. In systems handling oleum, O-rings, rubber seals, gaskets, and plastic components must be carefully selected for chemical compatibility. Proper handling, storage, ventilation, and protective practices are essential for safe industrial use.
