Resistance to Chemicals, Solvents, and Cleaning Agents
Materials and composites can be exposed to a variety of environmental influences depending on their location and conditions of use. Resistance to certain chemicals can be essential. For example, cleaning agents and disinfectants can attack surfaces or destroy protective coatings.
Testing is essential to evaluate the chemical resistance of certain materials, paints, and adhesives. The samples can be exposed to the respective chemical for a defined period of time by immersion, dripping, or spraying. Resistance is then assessed based on defined parameters, such as color change or cracking.
