Notes:
(1) Temperature, concentrations, impurities, and other chemicals present can effect the chemical resistance of an elastomer. It is not possible to test in all chemicals and therefore some
chemical resistance indicators are based on the manufacturer’s best estimates known about various classes and the composition of the elastomer. Therefore, manufacturers do not
certify results from a performance standpoint but state they should be used only as indicators of chemical resistance. APG assumes no responsibility whatsoever.
(2) The information contained in these tables was derived from several sources and is to be used as a general guide only. Compounds suitable for any specific application rests solely by
the end user. APG assumes no responsibility whatsoever.
