Material Ratings and Definitions

INTRODUCTION
This chemical resistance guide has been compiled to assist the
piping system designer in selecting chemical resistant
materials. The information given is intended as a guide only. Many
conditions can affect the material choices. Careful
consideration must be given to temperature, pressure and chemical concentrations before a final material can be selected.
Thermoplastics and elastomers physical characteristics are more
sensitive to temperature than metals. For this reason, a rating chart
has been developed for each.

Temperature maximums for thermoplastics, elastomers and metals should always fall within published temp/pressure ratings for
individual valves. THERMOPLASTICS ARE NOT RECOMMENDED FOR COMPRESSED AIR OR GAS SERVICE.
This guide considers the resistance of the total valve assembly as
well as the resistance of individual trim and fitting materials. The
rating assigned to the valve body plus trim combinations is always that of the least resistant part. In the cases where the valve
body is the least resistant, there may be conditions under which
the rate of corrosion is slow enough and the mass of the body
large enough to be usable for a period of time. Such use should
always be determined by test before installation of the component in a piping system.
In the selection of a butterfly valve for use with a particular chemical, the liner, disc, and stem must be resistant. All three materials
should carry a rating of A. The body of a properly functioning
butterfly valve is isolated from the chemicals being handled and
need not carry the same rating.
THERMOPLASTICS & ELASTOMERS

ABS Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene Class 4-2-2 conforming
to ASTM D1788 is a time-proven material. The smooth inner surface and superior resistance to deposit formation makes ABS drain,
waste, and vent material ideal for residential and commercial sanitary systems. The residential DWV system can be exposed in service to a wide temperature span. ABS-DWV has proven satisfactory for use from -40F to 180F. These temperature variations can
occur due to ambient temperature or the discharge of hot liquids
into the system. ABS-DWV is very resistant to a wide variety of

materials ranging from sewage to commercial household chemical formulations. ABS-DWV is joined by solvent cementing or
threading and can easily be connected to steel, copper, or cast
iron through the use of transition fittings.
CPVC Chlorinated Polyvinyl Chloride Class 23447-B, formerly
designated Type IV, Grade 1 conforming to ASTM D-1784, has
physical properties at 73F similar to those of PVC, and its chemical resistance is similar to or generally better than that of PVC.
CPVC, with a design stress of 2000 psi and maximum service
temperature of 210F, has proven to be an excellent material for
hot corrosive liquids, hot or cold water distribution, and similar
applications above the temperature range of PVC. CPVC is joined
by solvent cementing, threading or flanging.
PP (Polypropylene) Type 1 Polypropylene is a polyolefin, which
is lightweight and generally high in chemical resistance.
Although Type 1 polypropylene conforming to ASTM D-2146 is
slightly lower in physical properties compared to PVC, it is chemically resistant to organic solvents as well as acids and alkalies.
Generally, polypropylene should not be used in contact with strong
oxidizing acids, chlorinated hydrocarbons, and aromatics. With a
design stress of 1000 psi at 73 F, polypropylene has gained wide
acceptance where its resistance to sulfur-bearing compounds is
particularly useful in salt water disposal lines, crude oil piping, and
low pressure gas gathering systems. Polypropylene has also
proved to be an excellent material for laboratory and industrial
drainage where mixtures of acids, bases, and solvents are involved.
Polypropylene is joined by the thermo-seal fusion process, threading or flanging. At 180F, or when threaded, PP should be used for
drainage only at a pressure not exceeding 20 psi.
PVC Polyvinyl Chloride Class 12454-B, formerly designated
Type 1, Grade 1. PVC is the most frequently specified of all thermoplastic materials. It has been used successfully for over 30 years
in such areas as chemical processing, industrial plating, chilled
water distribution, deionized water lines, chemical drainage, and
irrigation systems. PVC is characterized by high physical properties and resistance to corrosion and chemical attack by acids,
alkalies, salt solutions, and many other chemicals. It is attacked,
however, by polar solvents such as ketones, some chlorinated
hydrocarbons and aromatics. The maximum service temperature
of PVC is 140F. With a design stress of 2000 psi, PVC has the
highest long-term hydrostatic strength at 73F of any of the major
thermoplastics being used for piping systems. PVC is joined by
solvent cementing, threading, or flanging.
PVDF (Polyvinylidene Fluoride) KEM-TEMP (KYNAR) is a
strong, tough and abrasion-resistant fluorocarbon material. It resists distortion and retains most of its strength to 280F. It is chemically resistant to most acids, bases, and organic solvents and is
ideally suited for handling wet or dry chlorine, bromine and other
halogens. No other solid thermoplastic piping components can
approach the combination of strength, chemical resistance and
working temperatures of PVDF. PVDF is joined by the thermoseal fusion process, threading or flanging.
EPDM EPDM is a terpolymer elastomer made from ethylenepropylene diene monomer. EPDM has good abrasion and tear resistance and offers excellent chemical resistance to a variety of
acids and alkalines. It is susceptible to attack by oils and is not
recommended for applications involving petroleum oils, strong

Material Definitions
acids, or strong alkalines. It has exceptionally good weather aging
and ozone resistance. It is fairly good with ketones and alcohols
and has an excellent temperature range from -20F to 250F.
HYPALON (CSM) Hypalon has very good resistance to oxidation, ozone, and good flame resistance. It is similar to neoprene
except with improved acid resistance where it will resist such oxidizing acids as nitric, hydrofluoric, and sulfuric acid. Abrasion resistance of Hypalon is excellent, about the equivalent of nitriles.
Oil and solvent resistance is somewhat between that of neoprene
and nitrile. Salts have little if any effect on Hypalon. Hypalon is not
recommended for exposure to concentrated oxidizing acids, esters, ketones, chlorinated, aromatic and nitro hydrocarbons.
Hypalon has a normal temperature range of -20F to 200F.
NEOPRENE (CR) Neoprenes were one of the first synthetic
rubbers developed. Neoprene is an all-purpose polymer with many
desirable characteristics and features high resiliency with low compression set, flame resistance, and is animal and vegetable oil
resistant. Neoprene is principally recommended for food and beverage service. Generally, neoprene is not affected by moderate
chemicals, fats, greases, and many oils and solvents. Neoprene is
attacked by strong oxidizing acids, most chlorinated solvents,
esters, ketones, aromatic hydrocarbons, and hydraulic fluids. Neoprene has a moderate temperature range of -20F to 160F.
NITRILE (NBR) (BUNA-N) is a general purpose oil-resistant
polymer known as nitrile rubber. Nitrile is a copolymer of butadiene and acrylonitrile and has a moderate temperature range of
-20F to 180F. Nitrile has good solvent, oil, water, and hydraulic
fluid resistance. It displays good compression set, abrasion resistance and tensile strength. Nitrile should not be used in highly
polar solvents such as acetone and methyl ethyl ketone, nor should
it be used in chlorinated hydrocarbons, ozone or nitro hydrocarbons.
FLUOROCARBON (FKM) (VITON) (FLUOREL) Fluorocarbon elastomers are inherently compatible with a broad spectrum
of chemicals. Because of this extensive chemical compatibility,
which spans considerable concentration and temperature ranges,
fluorocarbon elastomers have gained wide acceptance as a material of construction for butterfly valve o-rings and seats. Fluorocarbon elastomers can be used in most applications involving
mineral acids, salt solutions, chlorinated hydrocarbons, and petroleum oils. They are particularly good in hydrocarbon service.
Fluorocarbon elastomers have one of the broadest temperature
ranges of any of the elastomers, -20F to 300F; however, they are
not suited for steam service.
TEFLON (PTFE) Polytetrafluoroethylene has outstanding resistance to chemical attack by most chemicals and solvents. PTFE
has a temperature rating of -20F to 400F in valve applications. PTFE,
a self lubricating compound, is used as a seat material in ball valves.
PEEK (Polyetheretherketone) PEEK is a high-performance
engineered thermoplastic which can be used above the useful
range of PTFE. PEEK has physical characteristics approaching
some metals (approximately 30K tensile) and has excellent resistance to a wide range of organic and inorganic chemicals. PEEK
can be used up to 550F and is an excellent choice for heat transfer fluids, steam and hydrocarbon services.
GRAPHITE Graphite is the packing and seal material of choice
for most fire-rated products, primarily because of its high temperature rating of approximately 2000F. Graphite has excellent
chemical resistance, can retain compressibility at all temperatures
and has a low coefficient of friction. Graphite is not recommended

for use in strong oxidizing atmospheres.

METALS USED IN VALVES & FITTINGS

ALUMINUM A non-ferrous metal, very lightweight, approximately one-third as much as steel. Aluminum exhibits excellent
atmospheric corrosion resistance, but can be very reactive with
other metals. In valves, aluminum is mainly used as an exterior
trim component such as a handwheel or an identification tag.
COPPER Among the most important properties of wrot copper materials are their thermal and electrical conductivity, corrosion resistance, wear resistance, and ductility. Wrot copper performs well in high temperature applications and is easily joined by
soldering or brazing. Wrot copper is exclusively used for fittings.
BRONZE One of the first alloys developed in the bronze age is
generally accepted as the industry standard for pressure-rated
bronze valves and fittings. Bronze has a higher strength than pure
copper, is easily cast, has improved machinability, and is very easily
joined by soldering or brazing. Bronze is very resistant to pitting
corrosion, with general resistance to most chemicals less than
that of pure copper.
SILICONE BRONZE Has the ductility of copper but much more
strength. The corrosion resistance of silicon bronze is equal to or
greater than that of copper. Commonly used as stem material in
pressure-rated valves, silicon bronze has greater resistance to
stress corrosion cracking than common brasses.
ALUMINUM BRONZE The most widely accepted disc material used in butterfly valves, aluminum bronze is heat treatable and
has the strength of steel. Formation of an aluminum oxide layer on
exposed surfaces makes this metal very corrosion resistant. Not
recommended for high pH wet systems.
BRASS Generally good corrosion resistance. Susceptible to
de-zincification in specific applications; excellent machinability.
Primary uses for wrot brass are for ball valve stems and balls, and
iron valve stems. A forging grade of brass is used in ball valve
bodies and end pieces.
GRAY IRON An alloy of iron, carbon and silicon; easily cast;
good pressure tightness in the as-cast condition. Gray iron has
excellent dampening properties and is easily machined. It is standard material for bodies and bonnets of Class 125 and 250 iron
body valves. Gray iron has corrosion resistance that is better than
steel in certain environments.
DUCTILE IRON Has composition similar to gray iron. Special
treatment modifies metallurgical structure, which yields higher
mechanical properties; some grades are heat-treated to improve
ductility. Ductile iron has the strength properties of steel using similar casting techniques to that of gray iron.
CARBON STEEL Very good mechanical properties; good resistance to stress corrosion and sulfides. Carbon steel has high
and low temperature strength, is very tough and has excellent
fatigue strength. Mainly used in gate, globe, and check valves for
applications up to 850F, and in one-, two-, and three-piece ball valves.

Material Definitions and Standards

3% NICKEL IRON Improved corrosion resistance over gray
and ductile iron. Higher temperature corrosion resistance and
mechanical properties. Very resistant to oxidizing atmospheres.
NICKEL-PLATED DUCTILE IRON Nickel coatings have received wide acceptance for use in chemical processing. These
coatings have very high tensile strength, 50 to 225 ksi. To some
extent, the hardness of a material is indicative of its resistance to
abrasion and wear characteristics. Nickel plating is widely specified as a disc coating for butterfly valves.
400 SERIES STAINLESS STEEL An alloy of iron, carbon, and
chromium. This stainless is normally magnetic due to its martensitic structure and iron content. 400 series stainless steel is resistant to high temperature oxidation and has improved physical and
mechanical properties over carbon steel. Most 400 series stainless steels are heat-treatable. The most common applications in
valves are for stem material in butterfly valves and backseat bushings and wedges in cast steel valves.
316 STAINLESS STEEL An alloy of iron, carbon, nickel, and
chromium. A nonmagnetic stainless steel with more ductility than
400SS. Austinetic in structure, 316 stainless steel has very good
corrosion resistance to a wide range of environments, is not susceptible to stress corrosion cracking and is not affected by heat
treatment. Most common uses in valves are stem, body and ball
materials.
17-4 PH STAINLESS STEEL Is a martensitic precipitation/
age hardening stainless steel, offering high strength and hardness.
17-4 PH withstands corrosive attack better than any of the 400
series stainless steels, and in most conditions its corrosion resistance closely approaches that of 300 series stainless steel. 17-4
PH is primarily used as a stem material for butterfly and ball valves.
ALLOY 20Cb-3 This alloy has higher amounts of nickel and

chromium than 300 series stainless steel and with the addition
of columbium, this alloy retards stress corrosion cracking and
has improved resistance to sulfuric acid. Alloy 20 finds wide use
in all phases of chemical processing. Commonly used as interior
trim on butterfly valves.
MONEL Is a nickel-copper alloy used primarily as interior
trim on butterfly and ball valves. One of the most specified materials for corrosion resistance to sea and salt water. Monel is also
very resistant to strong caustic solutions.
STELLITE Cobalt base alloy, one of the best all-purpose
hard facing alloys. Very resistant to heat, abrasion, corrosion,
impact, galling, oxidation, thermal shock and erosion. Stellite
takes a high polish and is used in steel valve seat rings.
Normally applied with transfer plasma-arc; Stellite hardness is
not affected by heat treatment.
HASTELLOY C A high nickel-chromium molybdenum alloy,
which has outstanding resistance to a wide variety of chemical
process environments, including strong oxidizers such as wet
chlorine, chlorine gas, and ferric chloride. Hastelloy C is also resistant to nitric, hydrochloric, and sulfuric acids at moderate temperatures.
