Hello,
Would putting liquid paraffin (C[itex]_{n}[/itex]H[itex]_{2n + 2}[/itex]) in either a polyurethane or polyethylene bladder (such as a camelbak hydration bladder) create any compounds that have a higher toxicity than that of paraffin itself? I know that all petroleum distillates act as weak solvents and I'm curious as to whether paraffin will dissolve such a bladder (and if so, is it an issue?)
Thank you,
Blake
