WARNING

The information in this chart has been supplied by other reputable sources and is to be used
ONLY as a guide in selecting equipment for appropriate chemical compatibility. Before
permanent installation, test the equipment with the chemicals and under the specific
conditions of your application.

Ratings of chemical behaviour listed in this chart apply at a 48-hr exposure period.
Cole-Parmer has no knowledge of possible effects beyond this period. We does not warrant
(neither express nor implied) that the information in this chart is accurate or complete or that
any material is suitable for any purpose.

DANGER

Variations in chemical behaviour during handling due to factors such as temperature,

pressure, and concentrations can cause equipment to fail, even though it passed an
initial test.

SERIOUS INJURY MAY RESULT

Use suitable guards and/or personal protections when handling chemicals.
