Plastics safe for alkaline treated water

[mat777]

Hi everyone,

I have been looking at camping water carriers to hold water treated with TC (at approx 3ml/litre of water):

but I have been informed by someone that knows about using these sorts of treatment that HDPE containers melt in such conditions. Can anyone tell me which plastics are safe? I know to avoid polyesters because alkaline solutions dissolve ester plastics, but was surprised that HDPE, being an alkane chain plastic, is also susceptible.

Thanks,

Matt

Motorvator could be your man for that.
