Halocarbon oils are inert toward practically all compounds and solutions. The same is true for Halocarbon greases with the exception that silica-thickened greases are prone to attack by chemicals active toward silica. Silica is attacked by alkalis, hydrofluoric acid and fluorinating agents so the silica-thickened greases should not be used in those applications (unless testing indicates otherwise). However, silica is inert to most other aggressive chemicals so silica-thickened greases find very wide application. PCTFE-thickened greases are not subject to this type of attack.

Oil grade followed by "S" indicates rust inhibitor has been added. Oxygen compatibility remains the same.
