Chemical Resistance Table KPC LDPE

Based on the Technical Report, this document suggests the chemical resistance of lowdensity polyethylene (LDPE). The information and data contained in this document shouldbe used only as a general guideline on the possible use of the chemicals in contact withthe specified polymers under normal conditions as detailed in the table. The datapresented are not intended as guidance for any specific application, purpose or use.

Normal conditions include the following:a) Temperatures of 68ºF and 140ºF;b) The absence of internal and external mechanical stress; andc) Good manufacturing principles and procedures.

Symbols used for the chemical resistance of the materialsS = SatisfactoryL = LimitedNS = Not Satisfactory

Symbols used to describe the chemicalsThe chemicals are listed by their most customary names, including common and tradenames, in alphabetical order.

The concentration and/or the purity of each chemical is indicated in the table using thefollowing symbols:

Sat. sol. = Saturated aqueous solution, prepared at 68ºF.Sol. = Aqueous solution at a concentration higher than 10%, but not saturated.Dil. sol. = Dilute aqueous solution at a concentration equal to or less than 10 %.Work. Sol. = Working solution of the concentration usually used in the industry concerned.

Susp. = Suspension of solid in a saturated solution at 68ºF.tg = At least technical grade purity.tg-s = Technical grade, solid.tg-l = Technical grade, liquid.tg-g = Technical grade, gas.The concentrations are expressed as a percentage by mass at 68ºF, unless otherwise stated

Chemical Resistance Table KPC Polypropylene

Scope and Field ApplicationThis document establishes a provisional classification of the chemical resistance of polypropylene with respect to about 180 fluids. It is intended to provide general guidelines on the possible utilisation of polypropylene piping for the conveyance of fluids:

- at temperatures up to 68º, 140º and 212º F- in the absence of internal pressure and external mechanical stress(for example flexural stresses, stresses due to thrust, rolling loads etc).

Definitions, Symbols and AbbreviationsThe criteria of classifications, definitions, symbols and abbreviations adopted in this document are asfollows:

S = Satisfactory

The chemical resistance of polypropylene exposed to the action of a fluid is classified as “satisfactory” when the results of test are acknowledged to be “satisfactory” by the majority of the countries participat-ing in the evaluation.

L = Limited

The chemical resistance of polypropylene exposed to the action of fluid is classified as “limited” when the results of tests are acknowledged to be “limited” by the majority of the countries participating in the evaluation.

Also classified as “limited” are the resistances to the action of chemical fluids for which judgements “S” and “NS” or “L” are pronounced to an equal extent.

NS = Not satisfactory

The chemical resistance of polypropylene exposed to the action of a fluid classified as “not satisfactory” when the results of test are acknowledged to be “not satisfactory” by the majority of the countries participating in the evaluation.Also classified as “not satisfactory” are materials for which judgement “L” and “NS” are pronounced to an equal extent.

Sat.sol Saturated aqueous solution, prepared at 68ºFSol Aqueous solution at a concentration higher than 10% but not saturatedDil.sol Dilute aqueous solution at a concentration equal to or lower than 10%Work.sol Aqueous solution having the usual concentration for industrial use

Solution concentrations reported in the text are expressed as a percentage by mass. The aqueous solutions of sparingly soluble chemicals are considered, as far as chemical action towards polypropylene in concerned, as saturated solutions.

In general, common chemical names are used in this document.

The table is made as a first guideline for user of polypropylene. If a chemical compound is not to be found or if there is an uncertainty on the chemical resistance in an application, please contact King Plastic Corporation for advise and proposal on testing.
