METHYL CYANIDE Chemical compatibility with O-rings, rubbers, & plastics
Methyl cyanide, also known as acetonitrile, is a colorless, volatile liquid with the chemical formula C₂H₃N, used in various industrial and chemical applications. It is primarily employed as a solvent in the production of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and polymers, and as a chemical intermediate in organic synthesis. Methyl cyanide is also used in the formulation of coatings, adhesives, and cleaning agents. Despite its utility, methyl cyanide is highly toxic and poses significant health risks if inhaled, ingested, 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.
