OCTYL CRESOL Chemical compatibility with O-rings, rubbers, & plastics

Octyl cresol, also known as 4-tert-octylphenol, is an organic compound used primarily as an intermediate in the production of surfactants, resins, and rubber chemicals. It has the chemical formula C14H22O and is a white to pale yellow solid with a characteristic phenolic odor. Octyl cresol is valued for its ability to enhance the properties of polymers and other industrial materials. It is also used in the formulation of disinfectants and antiseptics. Handling requires caution due to its potential health effects, including skin and respiratory irritation upon exposure.
