OCTYL CHLORIDE Chemical compatibility with O-rings, rubbers, & plastics
Octyl chloride, or 1-chlorooctane, is an organic compound with the chemical formula C8H17Cl. It is a colorless liquid that serves as an alkylating agent in organic synthesis, used to introduce the octyl group into various chemical compounds. Octyl chloride is also employed in the manufacture of surfactants, lubricants, and plasticizers. It is flammable and should be handled with care to avoid inhalation and skin contact, as it can cause irritation. Due to its reactive nature, octyl chloride is stored and used under controlled conditions to ensure safety and stability.
