Explanation of ratings
E EXCELLENT – The plastic was unaffected in any way for the duration of the test.
G GOOD – A very slight clouding or discoloration took place. Expected life – months to years.
F FAIR – Moderate effect. Slight etching, some discoloration, possibly some dimensional changes orweight change. Expected life – weeks to months.
P POOR – Considerable change. Expected life – days.
N NOT RECOMMENDED – Severe attack. Plastic became soft in a few hours, and was unusable within a few days or by end of test.
