Chemical Resistance Guide
Chemical Resistance Guide This Chemical Resistance Guide is based on numerous resources and is believed to be accurate and reliable to the best of our knowledge. It is intended to be used as a guide in selecting materials for appropriate chemical compatibility. Ratings of chemical behavior listed in this chart may apply to a limited exposure period and temperature range. These suggestions and recommendations are intended as an additional source of information.
