Chemicals are only found inside the hazmat cabinets that you’ll find in many (most?) ARDA trailers. ARDA trailers appear on your map as the low buildings with a satellite dish on top (click the right thumbstick or hit v on your keyboard to pull up the map legend).

The hazmat cabinet inside the trailer will have a mesh over the doors. Many of them are locked, so you’ll need a prybar (4 scrap metal, 1 duct tape) to open them.
Inside, you might find chemicals, pressurized cartridges, and gas canisters.
