“Do you have a list or can you point me to a list of adhesives and epoxies that are compatible with mineral oil? These would be ones that do not break down or release their adhesiveness when mineral oil passes over the adhesive/epoxy. Along those lines, which materials are better/best for tubing carrying mineral oil?”

The table below was provided courtesy of Cole Parmer. There may be other chemical compatibility charts available. You can rank various adhesives into different chemical categories, such as urethane, epoxy, or silicone, and should follow the basic trends listed below. For Example: DYMAX 1187-M light-curable adhesive is classified as a Urethane Acrylate adhesive family of chemicals. Evaluation of specific adhesives for a given set of substrates should be evaluated fully.

1. Satisfactory to 72°F (22°C)
2. Satisfactory to 120°F (48°C)

Ratings - Chemical Effect
• A = Excellent
• B = Good - Minor effect, slight corrosion or discoloration
• C = Fair - Moderate effect, not recommended for continuous use. Softening, loss of strength, swelling may occur
• D = Severe effect - Not recommended for ANY use
• N/A = Information not available
