*In general these compounds have excellent resistance to acids, alkalies, and salts. Hot acids and alkalies as well as concentrated oxidizing and organic acids have a deleterious effect with prolonged exposure. Most compounds have fair resistance to aliphatic solvents, fair to poor resistance to aromatic and chlorinated solvents, and poor resistance to ketones and most esters.
