FAQ: Chemical Compatibility

We all know oil and water don’t mix. Same goes for acids and bases. But what about Kerosene and cellulose acetate? Or Trichloroethylene and silver? To answer these questions we have our frequently referenced Chemical Compatibility Chart for general laboratory filtration products. Since using the correct filter material is vital to the success of a separation process we are constantly expanding our knowledge base of chemicals used with our filtration products. We currently have data on over 70 chemicals and their recommendation level for filtration materials such as Polycarbonate, Nylon and PTFE. Curious about a chemical that isn’t listed yet? Just ask us about it we’ll be happy to help you out.
