PEANUT OIL Chemical compatibility with O-rings, rubbers, & plastics

Peanut oil, also known as groundnut oil, is a vegetable oil derived from peanuts. It is commonly used in cooking due to its high smoke point and mild flavor. Peanut oil is rich in monounsaturated fats, which contribute to heart health, and is also used in the manufacture of margarine, shortening, and other food products. In addition to culinary uses, peanut oil is employed in cosmetics and pharmaceuticals for its moisturizing properties. It is also used as a carrier oil for therapeutic essential oils. Peanut oil is generally considered safe but can cause allergic reactions in sensitive individuals.
