TopStone® has been tested as per the American Standard NEMA 3 - 3.09 for Laboratory Applications of the commonly used chemicals.
There are more than 11,500 chemicals available and to test all is not practical, however customised tests can be desired.
The strength and the temperature of the chemicals as well as the exposure time can affect the test results. It is highly recommended therefore, to do in-house testing on TopStone® samples to confirm its suitabily with the proposed chemicals and laboratory practices.
