This chart gives general guidelines only on the chemical resistance of plastics. There are many factors which influence chemical resistance - always test for your own application before selecting the appropriate Azlon product. If you have any doubts, please contact our Technical Dept. for advice.
Good general resistance minor attack may occur after long periods of storage.
Limited resistance product can be used for brief mixing and measuring.
