CHEMICAL RESISTANCE CLASSIFICATION TABLES

The chemical resistance of the plastics are shown on the tables referring TS 11448 Standards.

Plastics Classification:

LDPE: Low Density Polyethylene
HDPE: High density Polyethylene
PP: Polypropylene
PVC-U: Unplasticised Polyvinylchloride
PEX: Cross-linked Polyethylene

Symbols and Definitions:

D: " Resistant" . The material is not negatively affected ;

- If no internal pressure is applied.
- When used with chemicals with pre-described concentrations, under pre-described temperatures.
- When there is no external mechanical enforcement.

SD: "Limited Resistance" The material can be corroded limitedly though;
- If no internal pressure is applied.
- When used with chemicals with pre-described concentrations, under pre-described temperatures.
- When there is no external mechanical enforcement.

Therefore the pipes marked with SD should only be used for projects that a little amount of corrosion can be tolerated.

DZ: " Irresistant" The material marked with "IR" should not be used with chemicals neither pressurized nor non-pressurized applications because of high effect rate of chemicals.

E.N.: Melting Point, ºC

K.N.: Boiling Point, ºC

C: Concentration, %

T: The experimental test temperature, ºC, of chemical resistance test.

sç: loose solution, %10 or less

ç: solution, more dense than 10% but unsaturated solution

dç: saturated solution, 20ºC

ts: technical purity , min.

ts-k: technical purity ,solid

ts-s: technical purity , liquid

ts-g: technical purity, gas

çç: working solution, widest concentration in second

süsp.: suspension, prepared at 20ºC in saturated solution

Unless otherwise specified, concentrations are given in mass percent (m/m %) at 20ºC.
