Polycarbonate Chemical Compatibility Chart

What Chemicals are Compatible with Polycarbonate?

  • Chemically resistant to many acids, oxidizing / reducing agents, neutral and acid salt solutions, greases, oils, detergents, saturated, aliphatic and cycloaliphatic hydrocarbons and alcohols
  • Polycarbonate features an extremely high melting point, around 288°C / 550°F
  • Autoclavable
  • As a thermoplastic, PC can be heated to its melting point, cooled, and reheated without significant degradation
  • Superior impact resistance
  • NOT compatible with methyl alcohol, acetone, ketones, ethers, aromatic and chlorinated hydrocarbons, aqueous or alcoholic alkaline solutions, or ammonia gas
  • NOT ideal for food storage at temperatures above 70° (can release BPA)

Please Note: The information in this chart has been supplied by reputable sources and is to be used ONLY as a guide in selecting equipment for appropriate chemical compatibility. ALWAYS test your equipment under the specific conditions of your application before permanent installation.
Ratings of chemical behavior listed in this chart apply at a 48-hr exposure period. We have no knowledge of possible effects beyond this period. We do not warrant (neither express nor implied) that the information in this chart is accurate or complete or that any material is suitable for any purpose.
