Memorandum responding to a question from Cumene Unit personnel at the Ponce Plant about using Haveg or Chemtite piping, which is made by molding asbestos fibers with resin, in place of Teflon-lined steel piping. It reviewed chemical resistance and Institute Plant field experience and recommended against these materials in the reaction system because of low mechanical strength and brittleness, while suggesting case-by-case evaluation for other areas.
