Chemical Compatibility Study on Viton & HFE71IPA
(OP)
Hi,
Anyone has perform any chemical compatibility study on Viton O-Ring soak in HFE71IPA ?
Will there be swelling?
Will it contaminate the solvent?
Can I soak Viton O-ring in HFE-71IPA?
Thanks.

My experience with Viton is that is is highly chemical resistant, except it is not happy with chemicals bearing acetate radicals, amines, and it swells a little in water.
There are a LOT of Viton recipes available even from DuPont, and there is probably an optimal formulation for your HFE-71IPA stuff.
