In addition to minimizing volatiles that can affect the taste of sensitive aqueous, acidic and low-alcohol beverages, its lower processing temperature also helps save energy and expand manufacturing flexibility.

The image below demonstrates the outcome against 30% sulfuric acid. Avient also soak-tested its performance against other chemicals including 10% hydrochloric acid, 10% calcium chloride, antifreeze, 10% ammonium hydroxide, 12% sodium hypochlorite (bleach), and ethanol.

ECCOH LSFOH solutions can also achieve specified performance to additional criteria such as smoke production, acidity and flaming droplets. KEY CHARACTERISTICS • Highly flame retardant: Flame retardancy helps prevent fire and to limit damage if one starts • Non-halogenated: During a fire, there are no ingredients to cause acidic gas emissions from the polymer, which can damage equipment and buildings • Low smoke: In the event of fire, people are more able to find the escape exit and fire fighters can quickly find the source of the fire • Low toxicity: People are not likely to be overcome by toxic fumes • Low dripping: No flaming droplets are likely to propagate a fire or injure evacuees • Manufacturing efficiency: Easy processing with a smooth surface finish MARKETS AND APPLICATIONS The ECCOH range of specialty polymers help manufacturers meet CPR requirements for power, control and communication cables (including optical fiber cables) used in buildings. Additional Criteria • Total heat release (MJ/m²) • pHRR (kW/m²) • Time of Ignition (s) • Smoke production • Acidity • Flaming droplets This example demonstrates the need to consider the complete cable design, as using XLPE for the insulation layer would not give the required Euroclass.

LSR will generally withstand high levels of exposure to cleaning and disinfecting chemicals, but is susceptible to attacks by concentrated solvents (gasoline, mineral spirits) and acids (sulfuric acid, carbonic acid, citric acid found in car batteries, sodas and juices).¹
