HYDROFLUORIC ACID Chemical compatibility with O-rings, rubbers, & plastics

Hydrofluoric acid is a highly corrosive and toxic acid with the chemical formula HF. It is used in various industrial processes, including glass etching, metal cleaning, and semiconductor manufacturing. Hydrofluoric acid is also employed in the production of fluorine-containing compounds and in petroleum refining. Despite its utility, it poses severe health hazards, including severe burns, respiratory distress, and potential systemic toxicity due to its ability to penetrate skin and tissues deeply. Proper handling, storage, and stringent safety protocols are essential to minimize risks. Immediate medical attention is required in cases of exposure due to its rapid and severe effects.
