 Polyester screen and cylinder chemical resistance1 1/2' and 2" screens:
  • Acid: very good resistance depending on concentration and temperature. Resistance to most mineral acid is excellent.
  • Alkali: limited resistance depending on concentration and temperature. Excellent resistance to low concentrated lyes. Dissolves in highly concentrated lyes at higher temperatures.
  • Oxidizing agents: good resistance.
  • Organic solvents: excellent resistance. Some phenolic compounds and hot nitrobenzene dissolve the screens.
  • Generally the screens show no evidence of toxicity and have excellent resistance to decay and bacteria.
