METHYL IODIDE Chemical compatibility with O-rings, rubbers, & plastics
Methyl iodide is a colorless to pale yellow liquid with the chemical formula CH₃I, used in various industrial and chemical applications. It is primarily employed as a methylating agent in organic synthesis, in the production of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals, and as a reagent in laboratory research. Methyl iodide is also used as a fumigant to control pests in soil and stored products. Despite its utility, methyl iodide 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 and adequate ventilation, are essential to minimize risks and ensure safe usage.
