Satisfactory
M
Moderate attack, may be satisfactory for use in centrifuge depending on length of exposure, speed involved, etc.;
suggest testing under actual conditions of use.
U
Unsatisfactory, not recommended.
-
No data available. Because no organized chemical resistance data exists for materials under the stress of centrifugation,
when in doubt we recommend pretesting sample lots. suggest testing, using sample to avoid loss of valuable material.
