Chemical resistance charts are only a guide and should be used as such.  The degree of resistance of an elastomer to a material depends upon variables such as temperature, concentration levels, working pressure, flow velocity, duration of use, among other variables.  The compound should be tested under actual service conditions to ensure compatibility.
