These samples were wrapped around a 1/12 OD wire in self-laminating format. Test was conducted at room temperature after 24 hour dwell. The samples were immersed in the specified chemical reagents for 5 immersions using the following cycle: a 10 minute immersion time followed by a 30 minute recovery time.
