PERFORMANCE PROPERTY
CHEMICAL RESISTANCE
Samples of white were printed with the Series R6200 ribbon, laminated to flat aluminum panels and wrapped around 0.080" OD TFE
jacketed wire, and allowed to dwell 24 hours prior to test. Testing consists of 5 cycles of 10 minute immersions in the specified
chemicals followed by 30 minute recovery periods. After the final immersion the flat samples were rubbed with cotton swabs. Testing
was conducted at room temperature except where noted.
