TITANIUM TETRACHLORIDE Chemical compatibility with O-rings, rubbers, & plastics

Titanium tetrachloride (TiCl4) is a colorless, fuming liquid used primarily as an intermediate in the production of titanium metal and titanium dioxide. It is employed in various industrial and chemical applications, including the manufacturing of pigments, catalysts, and specialty chemicals. Titanium tetrachloride is highly reactive and requires proper handling and storage to prevent accidents and ensure safety. It can pose health risks if inhaled or ingested and may cause severe skin and eye irritation. Safety measures, including the use of appropriate protective equipment and adherence to handling protocols, are crucial when working with titanium tetrachloride. Its effectiveness as an intermediate and its unique properties make titanium tetrachloride a valuable chemical in numerous industrial and chemical applications, contributing to the synthesis and production of a wide range of products and materials.
