5. Chemical Compatibility
The materials (PP and PTFE) used in
Midisart give it excellent compatibility
with the products listed below. However,
its compatibility can be affected by various
factors, such as temperature, concentration,
com position, etc. We therefore recommend
that you test whether Midisart is compatible
with the particular medium you wish to filter.
