Tables of Chemincal Resistance of UPVC
The resistance of plastic pipe materials to a wide range of chemicals is listed in the following tables. The chemical names used in the tables are, wherever possible, in accordance with the recommendations contained in BS 2474.
Abbreviations used in table as follows:
| Abbreviation | Description |
|---|---|
| S | Satisfactory |
| U – Unsatisfactory | So rated because of decomposition, solution, swelling, loss of ductility etc, of the sample tested. |
| D – Some attach OR Absorption | The material may be considered for use when alternative materials are Unsatisfactory, and where limited life is acceptable. When plastics are to be used with such chemicals, full-scale trials under realistic conditions are particularly necessary. |
| *_ Predicted results | In order to cover as wide range of named chemicals as possible, the resistance of plastics to some chemicals has been predicted from it's resistance to other chemicals which have similar composition. |
T Reference should be made to section 21 (pipes for food and drink other than water) of BS CP 312 Part 1
