URANIUM HEXAFLUORIDE Chemical compatibility with O-rings, rubbers, & plastics

Uranium hexafluoride (UF6) is a chemical compound used primarily in the nuclear industry for uranium enrichment and the production of nuclear fuel. It is a volatile and highly reactive solid that sublimes at low temperatures, making it suitable for gas diffusion and gas centrifuge processes. Proper handling and storage of uranium hexafluoride are essential to maintain its quality and prevent accidents, as it is highly toxic and poses significant health and environmental risks. Safety measures, including the use of appropriate protective equipment and adherence to handling protocols, are crucial when working with uranium hexafluoride.
