Protector PVC Perchloric Acid Laboratory Hoods feature washdown systems, integral work surfaces and drainage troughs so that they may be thoroughly rinsed after each use to prevent the accumulation of potentially reactive perchloric salts. Their liners of Type 1 unplasticized polyvinyl chloride are designed to withstand reaction from perchloric acid.
