The Chemical Resistance of Polypropylene Film (Page 1)
| RATING SYSTEM: This Chart rates the chemical resistance of Pro-Fax polypropylene according to the following Code: A = NEGLIGIBLE EFFECT: Pro-Fax should be suitable for all applications where these environmental conditions exist. B = LIMITED ABSORPTION OR ATTACK: Pro-Fax should be suitable for most applications, but the user is advised to make his own tests to determine its suitability in the particular environment. |
C = EXTENSIVE ABSORPTION AND/OR RAPID PERMEATION: Pro-Fax should be suitable for applications where only intermittent service is involved, or where the swelling produced has no detrimental effect on the part. The user should make his own test to determine the suitability of Pro-Fax in the particular environment.
D = EXTENSIVE ATTACK: The specimen dissolves or disintegrates. Pro-Fax is not recommended. (a): May produce cracking in material under stress. |
