CHEMICAL RESISTANCE<strong>Silver</strong>-Lube ® housings have excellent resistance to a wide variety of chemicals. In very generalisedterms, resistance by chemical category can be summarised as:Chemical Category PerformanceAcidsExcellentBasesGood to LimitedOrganic SolventsExcellent to FairKetones and Esters Fair to LimitedChlorinated Solvents Excellent to LimitedSaltsExcellentAutomotive Media Excellent to FairMore detailed results from testing Valox ® 420 resin in various media are listed in table 7. These listhousing strength when exposed to specific chemicals under specific time, temperature andconcentration situations, but not in combination with other chemical agents or environmental factors.It is therefore important that the user assesses each application with regard to combined chemicalexposures and environmental conditions.Table 7 Chemical Resistance of Valox ® 420(All data expressed in terms of % retention of tensile strength) xx = brittleIMMERSIONMEDIA DAYS TEMP °C %ACIDS10% Hydrochloric Acid 30 25 8990 (77°F) 8510% Sulfuric Acid 30 25 9790 9436% Sulfuric Acid 30 25 9790 9730 60 8490 (140°F) 6010% Acetic Acid 30 25 8890 88BASES5% Potassium Hydroxide 30 25 8890 1010% Sodium Hydroxide 30 25 xx90 xx10% Ammonium Hydroxide 30 25 9690 87SALTS10% Zinc Chloride 30 25 9790 9410% Calcium Chloride 30 25 9890 985% Sodium Chloride 30 25 9790 97ORGANIC SOLVENTSEthyl Alcohol 30 25 9990 96Methyl Alcohol 30 25 9190 82Isopropyl Alcohol 30 25 10090 100IPA-Water(50/50) 30 25 9890 97GENERAL AND AUTOMOTIVEHeptane 30 25 9990 99Acetone 30 25 8690 74Methylethylketone 30 25 9090 80Ethyl Acetate 30 25 9690 86Methylene Chloride 30 25 5490 54Ethylene Glycol 30 25 10090 100Motor Oil 30 25 10090 10030 121 9690 (250°F) 63The reported values are typical values only – they donot directly apply to the manufactured housing butto the Valox ® 420 resin itself.9
