Samples were printed with Hewlett Packard 600C ink and wrapped around 0.080" OD TFE wire in self-laminating format. Test was conducted at room temperature after 24 hour dwell. Testing consisted of 5 cycles of 10 minute immersions in the specified chemical reagent followed by 30 minute recovery periods.
