ACETAMIDE Chemical compatibility with O-rings, rubbers, & plastics
Acetamide, with the chemical formula C2H5NO, is a white crystalline solid that is used as a solvent and plasticizer. It is also employed as an intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, pesticides, and other organic compounds. Acetamide is produced by the dehydration of ammonium acetate or the hydrolysis of acetonitrile. It has a high melting point and is soluble in water and most organic solvents. Acetamide is known for its ability to stabilize certain chemical reactions and enhance the properties of materials it is added to. While it is considered relatively non-toxic, prolonged exposure can cause skin and respiratory irritation. Proper handling and storage are important to ensure safety when working with acetamide.
