The chemical resistance of Arnitel increases with the hardness.
Arnitel U shows the best chemical resistance, followed by Arnitel E and
Arnitel P.
The soft grades of Arnitel are soluble in halogenated hydrocarbons at room
temperature, whereas the harder grades will only dissolve at elevated
temperatures.
Arnitel is sensitive to strong acids. This goes especially for Arnitel U.
High temperature applications are not suitable if there is continuous contact
with acid.
