PAO-4 Reagent
ATI offers PAO-4, a four-centistokes PAO (Chemical Abstract System ID 68037-01-4). This reagent offers a U.S. Food & Drug Administration-approved alternative to DOP in FDA-regulated filter leakage testing applications. PAO is approved by the U.S. Army Surgeon General and is used by the United States military as a substitute for DOP in their filter and mask testing processes.
ATI oil aerosol reagents are available in both 1 gallon and 5 gallon containers. Larger volumes may be available upon request.
