Why is PTFE rated this way to Hydrogen Chloride Gas?
No test data is available for PTFE with Hydrogen Chloride Gas. Always test before use.
⚠️ When NOT to use PTFE
Avoid using PTFE (Teflon) with molten alkali metals, fluorine gas at high temperatures, and certain fluorinated compounds. It is the most chemically resistant plastic available.
