- Type of information:
- other: Internal data from the manufacturer
- Adequacy of study:
- key study
- Study period:
- 1993
- Reliability:
- 2 (reliable with restrictions)
- Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
- other: Internal data from the manufacture
- Reason / purpose for cross-reference:
- reference to same study
- Qualifier:
- according to guideline
- Guideline:
- other: test guideline AV 90.1, TRV 002, A and B
- Deviations:
- not specified
- Principles of method if other than guideline:
- No data
- GLP compliance:
- not specified
- Type of method:
- testing for reactivity towards container material
- Specific details on test material used for the study:
- Test material:
a) Polyethylene, Type Hostalen GM 6255
b) Polyethylene, Type Hostalen GM 7745
c) Polyethylene, Type Hostalen GM 7746 - Results:
- Tests positive, the test substance passed the individual methods A and B according to TRV 002.
Resistance against the test materials confirmed. - Transformation products:
- no
- Storage stability / reactivity towards container material:
- reaction with container material
- Conclusions:
- PVC, polyolefin, Teflon, Kynar, Kalrez and vinyl ester are satisfactory to temperatures recommended by manufacturer. Natural rubber, neoprene and Buna-N should be avoided. It is recommended that specific applications be pre-tested.
- Executive summary:
Chemical reactivity towards container material was tested according to test guideline AV 90.1, TRV 002, A and B. It was concluded that PVC, polyolefin, Teflon, Kynar, Kalrez and vinyl ester are satisfactory to temperatures recommended by manufacturer. Natural rubber, neoprene and Buna-N should be avoided. It is recommended that specific applications be pre-tested.
Reference
In addition, experience in use shows that 316 l stainless steel is satisfactory at optimum handling temperatures. For higher temperatures (which make for easier handling of the 80% products) , stainless steel containing 6% or more molybdenum (Rolled alloys AL-6XN, Avesta 254-SMO, INCO 25-6MO) are providing significantly more corrosion resistant. These alloys are more expensive; overall economics must be considered.
Description of key information
PVC, polyolefin, Teflon, Kynar, Kalrez and vinyl ester are satisfactory to temperatures recommended by manufacturer. Natural rubber, neoprene and Buna-N should be avoided. It is recommended that specific applications be pre-tested.
Additional information
PVC, polyolefin, Teflon, Kynar, Kalrez and vinyl ester are satisfactory to temperatures recommended by manufacturer. Natural rubber, neoprene and Buna-N should be avoided. It is recommended that specific applications be pre-tested.
