UREA Chemical compatibility with O-rings, rubbers, & plastics

Urea is an organic compound with the formula CO(NH2)2, used primarily as a fertilizer and in the manufacture of resins, plastics, and pharmaceuticals. It is employed in various industrial and commercial applications, including the production of adhesives, coatings, and animal feed. Proper handling and storage of urea are essential to maintain its quality and prevent contamination. Safety measures, including the use of appropriate protective equipment and adherence to handling protocols, are crucial when working with urea.
