Is this material clorine proof or clorine resistent ?

I have not used in piscina, beach alone. I guess it must be resistant to chlorine.

I don't know of anything that's chlorine proof, but I can say that I use mine almost daily in a public chlorinated pool and it lasts at least 6-9 months. I swim about 1 hour a day and so it gets a lot of use -- in fact my O'Neill Swim shirts last longer, and keep their elasticity better, than my bathing suits usually do. I wouldn't ever want to go without one.

resistant, I have hit it with a hose while cleaning, seems like a good buy. I use it 30 miles off shore salt water.

Stainless Steel. They are resistant to mild acids as found in berries and mild abrasives which would mark aluminum.

I'm not a scientist, but for the aquarium, the acrylic it's made of is great. The tank cleans well, looks beautiful, and there have been no leaks in the years I've had it.

Zodiac should speak to materials compatibility, but I have had no problems, and I have a saltwater pool. It is the quiet version of PB4-60 which was originally installed with my pool. It is very quiet. I have not seen any corrosion or deterioration externally.

I couldn't say definitely if it is but the stainless steel is definitely corrosion resistant. Been using it for over a year with no signs of rust

dont know i have only used mine on a intex above ground pool, using clorine in the water. no fish waste for the filter to deal with either.

I have checked MARINELAND website, but they don't have listed MSDS (Material Safety Data Sheet) to the product. However, it seems to me the whitish color indicates baked activated clay. The activated clay is very typical anmonia absorption material. I have changed the White Diamond once or twice in a month to 50-gallon tank. Actually, I have not seen any high NH3+ in the tank water.

i read that seachem purigen can also be ruined if you use dechlorinators that have slime coat agents in them, like aloe and other slimy stuff. like API Stress coat - you cant put that in your tank if you are using purigen or other polymer resin type stuff and it also ruins certain other medias like DeNitrate by coating or clogging it up.

Stainless steel is actually stain-resistant (and rust resistant), not -proof. It will rust under fairly extreme conditions, such as high salinity combined with stagnation. And some alloys of stainless are better than others. Stainless steel has at least 10.5% chromium in the alloy, and the chromium oxidizes to form a protective film of chromium oxide. I've had my stainless steel compost bin for about two years now, and it has been constantly exposed to water/moisture, but has not shown any rust, inside or out. It would probably be a good idea to wipe it down with vegetable oil every now and then, not only to make the finish look nice but also to provide additional protection, but I haven't done that yet.

it appears to be stainless, however there are different grades of stainless and some are not suited for a marine environment.. In this case I would not recommend this product for you.. brass, galvanized metal, plastic or resin will last longer or be cheaper to replace yearly.

The backing is a rubber like material. My cats miss periodically as well, and it has not soaked through this backing. To be safe, I would say it is at least "water resistant".

I gave this to my son as a gift. He loves it and doesn't have any problems with it. Sorry I can't answer how resistant it is but he seems to not have issues. He uses a liner with it

It depends on the type of plastic. See: http://www.plasticsintl.com/plastics_chemical_resistence_chart.html

It is both water proof and water resistant. Not really sure what the material is made of but it is very heavy and thick. It is very weather resistant. I hope this helps.

The water tank is Polypropylene. Which is generally considered a very good chemical resistant material. It is certainly not cheap plastic.The instruction manual says the following for material: Cap; Porcelain; Base; ABS; Sink; PP; O-Ring; Silicone; Lens; PC.I don't know what essential oils you will be using but I suspect it will be fine with most normal essential oils. Some experts will say that citrus essential oils such as lemon and orange should not be used in a plastic container. But as I said, polypropylene is a tough, chemical resistant material and should be able to easily stand up to dilute citrus oils. The water tank is Polypropylene.
