Chemical Compatibility Guide for:
High Density Polyethylene Overpaks and Utility Trays
NOTICE:
This report is offered as a guide and was developed from information which, to the best of New Pig Corporation’s
knowledge, was reliable and accurate. Due to variables and conditions of application beyond New Pig Corporation’s
control, none of the data shown in this guide is to be construed as a guarantee, expressed, or implied. New Pig
Corporation assumes no responsibility, obligation, or liability in conjunction with the use or misuse of the
information.
Chemical Resistance is a measure of effects under “No Load” conditions. During a chemical resistance test, many
effects may appear, including:
Change in size or shape (swelling, shrinkage, distortion)
Change in color (absorption, extraction, chemical reaction)
Changes in weight (absorption, extraction)
Change in surface quality (crazing, cracking, loss of gloss, softening)
Change in physical properties, such as strength and stiffness
ASTM D43-60T TESTING
Recommended testing time is 7 (seven) days. However, 4 (four) weeks were used to obtain data presented here.
In addition to the recommended testing temperature of 75° F, tests at 125° F were conducted. If no effects at 75°
F were seen, and severe effects developed at 125° F, caution against long-term continuous exposure was
indicated.
