Chemical Resistance Table
Maximum Use Temperatures for Selected Chemicals for ETFE 

The Chemical Resistance Table is a list of generally accepted properties for selected chemicals to be used for ETFE.  This data is believed to be reliable; however, this table should not be used to extrapolate to a particular situation without further testing of the exact chemistry, concentration and fluoropolymer resin.  This table is meant only as a general guideline.  It is recommended that independent tests be conducted under actual or simulated use conditions, whenever possible, to determine suitability of ETFE or any other material for each specific application.
