Ethylenediamine Resistance of LDPE

Is LDPE compatible with Ethylenediamine? See the chemical resistance rating below.

Compatibility Rating

At 20°C (68°F)
A
Excellent
Excellent resistance - recommended for continuous use
At 50°C (122°F)
C
Fair
Limited resistance - short-term exposure only

Why is LDPE resistant to Ethylenediamine?

LDPE shows excellent resistance to Ethylenediamine due to its flexible polymer chains that resist attack from most aqueous solutions and inorganic chemicals.

⚠️ When NOT to use LDPE

Avoid using Low-Density Polyethylene with strong oxidizers, chlorinated solvents, and aromatic compounds. Temperature limit is approximately 60°C.

🌡️ Temperature Note

Performance degrades significantly at higher temperatures — rated Excellent at 20°C but only Fair at 50°C. For elevated temperatures, consider a more resistant material. Max service temp: 60°C.

🔄 Better Alternative?
