SULFURIC ACID, CONCENTRATED ROOM TEMP Chemical compatibility with O-rings, rubbers, & plastics

Concentrated sulfuric acid (H2SO4) at room temperature is a highly corrosive, dense liquid used in a wide range of industrial and chemical applications. It is a key component in the production of fertilizers, chemicals, petroleum refining, wastewater processing, and lead-acid batteries. Sulfuric acid is also used in the manufacturing of various products, including detergents, explosives, and dyes. Proper handling and storage of concentrated sulfuric acid are essential to prevent accidents and ensure safety, as it can cause severe burns and respiratory irritation. Safety measures, including the use of appropriate protective equipment and adherence to handling protocols, are crucial when working with sulfuric acid. Its versatility and effectiveness in numerous applications make concentrated sulfuric acid a valuable chemical in many industries, although its use requires careful control to prevent health and environmental hazards.
