FORMAMIDE Chemical compatibility with O-rings, rubbers, & plastics

Formamide is a colorless liquid with a faint odor, represented by the chemical formula HCONH2. It is used as a solvent and intermediate in the synthesis of various chemicals. Formamide is relatively non-toxic but can cause skin and respiratory irritation upon exposure. Proper handling, storage, and the use of personal protective equipment (PPE) are essential to ensure safety.
