CHEMICAL RESISTANCE GUIDE FOR METALS

The following table should be used only as a guide for selecting materials for various applications. This table does not imply a guarantee of corrosion resistance due to the fact the complicating factors, (ie; agitation, impurities, aeration and velocity of corrosives encountered in commercial operations) cannot be realistically duplicated in a controlled laboratory environment.
