Selecting FDM 3d printing materials for chemical resistance

Hello there! I’m currently exploring FDM printing for my project and wondering about materials that could withstand 30% nitric acid at 60°C. Would a PEEK-like material be suitable? Thanks in advance!

Hi Daniel, Peek is one of the most resistance plastics. It could withstand easy the 30% nitric acid under 60°C.
