A common question when implementing ozone into a new application is how will ozone affect the materials we currently have in place.  Below is a useful chart showing the resistance of common materials to ozone oxidation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A = Excellent<\/strong> – no effect from ozone in normal operation<\/p>\n\n\n\n

B = Good<\/strong> – some oxidation from ozone, these materials can work with low ozone concentrations or short-term (less than 6-month) usage<\/p>\n\n\n\n

C = Fair<\/strong> – major effect from ozone oxidation, these materials should only be used for short-term applications or very low ozone levels<\/p>\n\n\n\n

D = Poor<\/strong> – severe oxidation from ozone will be noticed quickly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
