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

Methoxyethanol, also known as ethylene glycol monomethyl ether, is a colorless liquid with the chemical formula C₃H₈O₂, used in various industrial applications as a solvent and chemical intermediate. It is employed in the production of coatings, inks, and cleaning agents, as well as in the synthesis of other chemicals. Methoxyethanol provides excellent solvency and is compatible with many resins and polymers, making it valuable in the formulation of paints and adhesives. Despite its utility, methoxyethanol is highly toxic and poses significant health risks if ingested, inhaled, or absorbed through the skin. Proper handling, storage, and stringent safety measures, including the use of personal protective equipment, are essential to minimize risks and ensure safe usage.
