AMMONIA GAS, COLD Chemical compatibility with O-rings, rubbers, & plastics

Cold ammonia gas, also known as anhydrous ammonia or NH3, is widely used in refrigeration systems, chemical processing, and industrial cleaning. This colorless gas has a sharp, pungent odor and readily dissolves in water to form ammonium hydroxide. When evaluating material compatibility, exposure to ammonia can impact O-rings, rubber seals, gaskets, and certain plastics. Cold ammonia may cause irritation or chemical burns, making careful material selection, proper storage, and appropriate PPE critical for safe operation.
