The Information above is the result of laboratory test and is intended only as a guide. No performance warranty is intended or implied. Exposure time, temperature and size of the area of the exposure usually varies considerable in application; therefore, this table is given and accepted at the user's risk. Material samples can be provided for testing in simulated conditions prior to actual service application.

The shown ratings are based upon visual and physical examination of samples after 14 days of immersion at room temperature. Results represent ability of material to retain its performance properties when in contact with the indicated chemical. Basic Concepts makes no guarantee of results and assumes no obligation or liability whatsoever in connection with this information.

Chemical spill requires special procedures to be contained. If it is a liquid chemical spill then remove all people from the area affected. Potential volatile and flammable objects should be removed from contact with the spill area. For effective chemical spill containment, pour sand followed by absorbent and adequate spill control material. If the chemical is base, then mix neutralizer with the sand. The spill containment procedure is followed by chemical clean up.
