PHENYLETHYL MALONIC ESTER Resistant O-Rings and Seals
Phenylethyl ether is also known as ethyl phenyl ether, ethyl benzene ether, or phenethyl ether. This chemical is widely used as a solvent for paints and coatings, as an intermediate in the production of pharmaceuticals, and as a reagent in organic synthesis.
When rubber is exposed to phenylethyl ether, it can cause the rubber to become brittle and prone to cracking or tearing. This can be particularly dangerous if the rubber is exposed to high levels of the chemical over a prolonged period of time. Exposure to phenylethyl ether can also cause the rubber to become deformed, leading to a loss of tight seals and possible leakage. In some cases, the rubber may become discolored due to contact with phenylethyl ether.
