Teflon Sensor Covers Chemical Resistance Chart

Chemical Resistance Chart

This Chemical Resistance Chart is intended to be used as a

general guide only. Since the ratings list is for ideal condi-

tions, all factors affecting chemical resistance must be consid-

ered. Teflon FEP is rated “EE” (excellent at 20°C and at 50°C)

for all the following chemicals except Fluorine and Perchloric

Acid. It is rated “EG” for Fluorine and “GF” for Perchloric

Acid.

E – No damage during 30 days of constant exposure.

G – Little or no damage after 30 days of constant exposure to

the reagent

F – Some effect after 7 days of constant exposure to the

reagent. The effect may be crazing, cracking, loss of strength,

or discoloration.
