Corzan® CPVC Chemical Resistance Chart
Compare Corzan® CPVC's compatability against 400+ chemicals.Recommendation Key
R - Recommended - Minimal or no swelling and/or loss in tensile strength, low or no potential for Environmental Stress Cracking (ESC)
N - Not Recommended - Significant softening or degradation with loss in material strength
S - Satisfactory Resistance - Low to moderate swelling or degradation above certain temperatures and/or concentrations
E - Possible ESC - Environmental stress cracking possible with mechanical stress on the material. Contact Lubrizol.

*Please note, pipe temperature could be impacted by sunlight and ambient temperature, possibly exceeding the product capabilities. To develop these recommendations, test data was reviewed in conjunction with field experience and information gathered from various sources to develop the recommendations shown. For industrial process piping applications, this testing comprised coupons of CPVC material immersed in the chemical and held at a constant temperature for 90 days. Resistance evaluations were made using weight gain and change in strength measurements following exposure. It should be noted that laboratory testing is by nature limited in scope and cannot possibly evaluate the effect of all potential variables on the performance of a complex operational piping system. Variations in pipe and fitting production quality, fluid composition, concentration, pressure and temperature; as well as system installation and maintenance can affect the life expectancy of any piping system, especially those carrying extremely corrosive chemicals such as peroxides or concentrated acids and caustics. The full hydrostatic pressure rating of the pipe may not apply to the entire range of temperature and concentration designated as recommended.
