Note!
Gaskets in EPDM rubber qualities swell in these media. Contact
time should be limited to 30 minutes.
Caution!
The following solutions should not be
used:
• Ketones (e.g. Acetone, Methyletylke-
tone, Methylisobutylketone
• Esters (e.g. Ethylacetate, Butylacetate)
• Halogenated hydrocarbons (e.g.
Chloro-thene, Carbon tetrachloride,
Freons)
• Aromatics (e.g. Benzene, Toluene).
