acid-resistant
Withstands corrosive substances
Acid-resistant describes materials or coatings that withstand damage from acidic substances.
Laboratory equipment, industrial pipes, and certain fabrics are manufactured to be acid-resistant: The tank's acid-resistant lining prevents corrosion.
The term appears in technical specifications and product descriptions where chemical exposure is a concern.
