Frequently Asked Questions
Which materials resist Lead(II) Acetate at high concentrations?
The materials with an A rating (resistant) for Lead(II) Acetate at 20 °C are: PTFE, HDPE, PP, PVDF, PVC Rigid, EPDM, SS 316, SS 304. These can generally be used in direct contact.
Which materials should be avoided with Lead(II) Acetate?
Materials rated D (not resistant) for Lead(II) Acetate are: Aluminium. These should not be used in contact with Lead(II) Acetate.
Does temperature affect chemical resistance to Lead(II) Acetate?
For Lead(II) Acetate, all tested materials maintain the same rating at both 20 °C and 50 °C.
Is PTFE safe for Lead(II) Acetate?
PTFE is rated A for Lead(II) Acetate at 20 °C. A rating of A means resistant, B means limited resistance, C means partly resistant, and D means not resistant.
Does concentration affect chemical resistance to Lead(II) Acetate?
Yes. Lead(II) Acetate is tested at 2 concentrations (aqueous, concentration not stated). Some materials change their rating depending on the concentration.
About this data
The ratings come from the chemical resistance list published by Bürkle GmbH, which compiled them from raw-material manufacturers’ data. They describe laboratory tests on the raw material at 20 °C and 50 °C.
A finished part also sees pressure, mechanical stress, welds and mixtures that a laboratory test does not. Treat the rating as a first filter and test under your own conditions before relying on it.
