T-BUTYLCATECHOL Chemical compatibility with O-rings, rubbers, & plastics

Tert-Butyl catechol (TBC) is a white to light brown crystalline solid with the chemical formula C10H14O2, used primarily as a stabilizer and antioxidant in various industrial and chemical applications. It is employed to prevent the polymerization of monomers such as butadiene, styrene, and vinyl acetate during storage and transportation. Tert-butyl catechol is also used in the production of certain resins, coatings, and adhesives, providing stability and preventing degradation. Proper handling and storage of TBC are essential to maintain its quality and prevent accidents, as it can pose health risks if inhaled or ingested. Safety measures, including the use of appropriate protective equipment and adherence to handling protocols, are crucial when working with TBC. Its effectiveness as a stabilizer and antioxidant makes tert-butyl catechol a valuable chemical in numerous industrial applications, ensuring the safe and efficient production and storage of various monomers and polymers.
