Selecting the correct elastomer for an application will depend on the chemical resistance, temperature and mechanical properties needed. Resistance is a function both of temperatures and concentration, and there are many reagents which can be handled for limited temperature ranges and concentrations. In borderline cases, it will be found that there is limited attack, generally resulting in some swelling due to absorption. Resistance is often affected (and frequently reduced) when handling a number of chemicals or compounds containing impurities. For this reason, when specific applications are being considered, it may be worthwhile to carry out tests using the actual product that will be encountered in service. The listing that follows does not address chemical combinations. The information is based on immersion tests on unstressed coupons, experiments and, when available, actual process experience as well as data from tests inclusive of stress from temperature and pressure. The end user should be aware of the fact that actual service conditions will affect the chemical resistance. Chemical resistance data from immersion tests cannot be unconditionally applied to elastomer components subjected to high levels of continuous or frequent mechanical or thermal stresses. When the elastomer will be subject to a continuous applied mechanical or thermal stress, or to combinations of chemicals, testing that duplicates the expected field conditions, as closely as possible, should be performed on representative samples of the elastomer product to properly evaluate the elastomer for use in this application. RATINGS Ratings are according to the product and suppliers. The absence of any class indication for any given materials, signifies the absence of data for such material(s) with respect to the specific chemical(s), temperature(s) and concentration(s). Note: Chemical resistance data is found in a laboratory setting and cannot account for all possible variables of an installed application. It is up to the design engineer or final user to use this information as guidance for a specific application design. If a material is chemically resistant to the concentrated form of a specific chemical, it should be resistant to the diluted form of that same chemical. IMPORTANT NOTICE Before you select or use any product or system, it is important that you analyze all aspects of your application and review the information concerning the product in the current product catalog. The user, through its own analysis and testing, is solely responsible for making the final selection of the system and components and assuring that all performance, safety and warning requirements of the application are met. Please, note that this publication is only a guide to be used for initial information on the material to be selected. No guarantee can be given in respect of the listed data. IPEX reserves the right to make any modification whatsoever, based upon further researches and experiences. IPEX Chemical Resistance Guide for EPDM & FKM i NOTES ii IPEX Chemical Resistance Guide for EPDM & FKM ETHYLENE PROPYLENE (EPDM) & FLUOROCARBON (FKM) All Chemical Resistance data for Ethylene Propylene (EPDM) and Fluorocarbon (FKM) contained within this manual has been obtained from FIP S.p.A. Resistance data was obtained from FIP’s online Chemical Resistance Guide. Compound Compatibility Rating Four different classes of chemical resistance are used in this guide i.e.: 1 High Resistance All material belonging to this class are completely or almost completely corrosion proof against the conveyed fluid according to the specified operating conditions 2 Limited Resistance The materials belonging to this class are partially attacked by the conveyed chemical compound. The average life of the material is therefore shorter, and it is advisable to use a higher safety factor the one adopted for Class 1 materials 3 No Resistance All material belonging to this class are subject to corrosion by the conveyed fluid and they should therefore not be used Insufficient Data The absence of any class indication means that no data are available The materials belonging to this class are completely resistant against the conveyed fluid according to the specified operating conditions. Chemical resistance for EPDM and FKM applies to IPEX valves and fittings using EPDM and FKM seals.

Anipsitakis Diploma (B.S./M.S.), Chemical Engineering, Nat. Technical Univ. Athens, 2000 Committee Chair: Dr. Dionysios D. Dionysiou ii Abstract This dissertation explores the fundamentals of a novel advanced oxidation technology, the II cobalt/peroxymonosulfate (Co /KHSO5) reagent, for the treatment of persistent and hazardous II substances in water. Co /KHSO5 is based on the chemistry of the Fenton Reagent and proceeds via the generation of sulfate radicals, which similarly to hydroxyl radicals, readily attack and degrade organic and microbial contamination in water. Very few studies have exploited the reactivity of sulfate radicals for environmental applications. Compared to the extensively investigated hydroxyl radicals, sulfate radicals are not fully understood. Following this approach, the coupling of nine transition metals with hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), potassium peroxymonosulfate (KHSO5) and persulfate (K2S2O8) was also explored. The objective was again the generation of inorganic radicals and the efficient degradation of organic contaminants in water.

E-mail: [email protected] Abstracts In this paper reports a three layered device that consists of a double spiral channel design for chemiluminsence (CL) detection and a passive micromixer to facilitate mixing of reagents. Compared to the design with a single spiral channel, the design with two overlapping spiral channels doubled the CL intensity emitted from the reaction. Furthermore, the addition of the passive micromixer improved the signal by 1.5 times. Luminol-based chemiluminescence reaction was used for the characterization of the device. This device was successfully used for the determination of L-cysteine and uric acid.

  • Hydrogen Peroxide Material Compatibility Chart from ISM and IS
    ver 09-Jul-2020 Hydrogen Peroxide Material Compatibility Chart All wetted surfaces should be made of materials that are compatible with hydrogen peroxide. The wetted area or surface of a part, component, vessel or piping is a surface which is in permanent contact with or is permanently exposed to the process fluid (liquid or gas). Less than 8% concentration H2O2 is considered a non-hazardous substance. Typically encountered versions are baking soda-peroxide toothpaste (0.5%), contact lens sterilizer (2%), over-the-counter drug store Hydrogen Peroxide (3%), liquid detergent non-chlorine bleach (5%) and hair bleach (7.5%). At 8% to 28% H2O2 is rated as a Class 1 Oxidizer. At these concentrations H2O2 is usually encountered as a swimming pool chemical used for pool shock treatments. In the range of 28.1% to 52% concentrations, H2O2 is rated as a Class 2 Oxidizer, a Corrosive and a Class 1 Unstable (reactive) substance. At these concentrations, H2O2 is considered industrial strength grade. Concentrations from 52.1% to 91% are rated as Class 3 Oxidizers, Corrosive and Class 3 Unstable (reactive) substances. H2O2 at these concentrations are used for specialty chemical processes. At concentrations above 70%, H2O2 is usually designated as high-test peroxide (HTP). Concentrations of H2O2 greater than 91% are currently used as rocket propellant. At these concentrations, H2O2 is rated as a Class 4 Oxidizer, Corrosive and a Class 3 Unstable (reactive) substance.
