Selecting the right materials is critical in microfluidic and automated liquid handling systems. Chemical compatibility impacts performance, durability, and reliability, especially in demanding applications such as life sciences, diagnostics, and industrial fluid handling.
At AMF, we design and manufacture precision-engineered components, ensuring optimal resistance to a wide range of chemicals. This guide provides a detailed compatibility assessment for the materials used in our microfluidic valves, rotary valves, syringe pumps, and fluidic distribution components.
The following compatibility ratings help determine how well each material performs when exposed to various chemicals.
Each material has been evaluated for resistance to a variety of chemicals. The ratings below indicate how well a material withstands prolonged chemical exposure:
The chemical compatibility of the following materials has been assessed:
This guide serves as a general reference. For critical applications, we recommend testing under specific operating conditions to confirm material performance.
The information provided in this Material Compatibility Guide is intended as a general reference only. While we strive to ensure accuracy, actual material performance may vary depending on operating conditions such as temperature, pressure, and chemical concentration.
It is the user’s responsibility to validate material compatibility for their specific application through testing under real-world conditions. AMF does not guarantee the absolute suitability of any material for a given use and is not liable for damages resulting from material degradation or failure.
For critical applications, please contact our engineering team for expert guidance and customized recommendations.
