| The values in the following tables are guideline values.
Factors such as such as filling material, temperature,
concentrations, stress, stress time etc. can alter these values dramatically.
Therefore no guarantee can be given for the correctness of said values.
The values are valid at an ambient temperature of 20 °C, and unless otherwise
stated, with strong concentrations. |

| Explanation of Symbols |
| |
| |
None or only negligible changes in weight
and mass (< 0.5 %). |
| |
No significant changes in mechanical characteristics. |
|
| |
| |
|
|
| |
| |
After a period of time, significant
changes in weight and mass (0.5 to 5.0%). Possible discoloration
and reduction in strength and ductility. Qualified usability, though
only when dealing with simple material requirements. |
|
| |
| |
|
| - |
Inconstant |
| |
|
| |
It is rapidly subjected to serious
attack, and changes in weight and mass (> 5%), and critical in
strength and ductility. Not recommended for use. |
