UltiMaker TPU 95A has good chemical resistance to, for example, water (salts), glycol, and fuels, but little or no resistance to acids, alcohols, and chlorinated organic chemicals. Resistance to chemicals depends on multiple factors, e.g., the duration of exposure and the concentration of solvents.
Tip: More information about chemical-resistant materials is available in this guide.
