KLINGERtop-chem Chemical resistance

Product catalog summary
Overview: This document provides a comprehensive analysis of the chemical resistance of four different gasket materials, detailing their compatibility with various chemicals and their maximum temperature resistance.

Main Sections:
  • Chemical List: An extensive list of chemicals, including Acetaldehyde, Acetic acid, Ammonia, Benzene, Chlorine, Ethanol, and Hydrochloric acid, is evaluated for compatibility with the gasket materials.
  • Temperature Resistance: The document specifies the maximum temperature at which each gasket material can maintain its integrity when exposed to these chemicals, with most chemicals having a resistance temperature of 260°C.
  • Material Suitability: Gasket materials are categorized based on their suitability for use with each chemical, indicating whether they are resistant, suitable with sufficient surface stress, or require manufacturer consultation.
  • Recommendations: Users are advised to ensure appropriate use as a compressed gasket between flange surfaces, with temperatures listed as maximum values.

Key Observations:
  • The KLINGERtop-chem material shows high resistance across a wide range of chemicals, maintaining integrity up to 260°C for most substances.
  • Certain chemicals, like Chlorine (moist) and Hydrofluoric acid, require special attention due to their aggressive nature, necessitating manufacturer consultation.
  • Surface stress is emphasized as a critical factor in determining the suitability of gasket materials for specific applications.

Conclusion: This document is a vital resource for engineers and technicians in selecting appropriate gasket materials for chemical processing applications, ensuring safety and efficiency in operations.
