Some polymers are also sensitive to attack, including acetal resin and polybutene.

In the 1970s, an acetal tip was introduced, designed by Ken Drinan and Paul Kiersted.

The ensuing loss of both flavor and sweetness can be prevented by protecting the aldehyde as an acetal.

Modern harpsichords frequently employ plectra made with plastic, specifically the plastic known as acetal.
From the en.wikipedia.org
They include polyethylene, polypropylene, nylon, acetal resin, polycarbonate and PET, all of which are widely used materials.
From the en.wikipedia.org
Thus an acetal resin water pipe joint suddenly failed and caused substantial damages to a building in which it was situated.

Lactose contains a reducing end at its glucose moiety, whereas the galactose moiety form a full acetal with the C4-OH group of glucose.

Chlorine-induced cracking of acetal resin plumbing joints and polybutylene pipes has caused many serious floods in domestic properties, especially in the USA in the 1990s.
From the en.wikipedia.org
Attack of the acetal joint occurred because of faulty molding, leading to cracking along the threads of the fitting which is a serious stress concentration.

- Any organic compound formed by adding alcohol molecules to aldehyde molecules
- (acetum) a dilute solution of acetic acid that is used as a solvent (e.g. for a drug)
- (acetum) vinegar: sour-tasting liquid produced usually by oxidation of the alcohol in wine or cider and used as a condiment or food preservative
- An acetal is a molecule with two single bonded oxygens attached to the same carbon atom.
- Any diether of a geminal diol, R2C(OR')2 (where R' does not = H)
- (Acetum) Referring to vinegar, or to a compound made from vinegar, as in "acetum radicatum."
- An organic compound derived from a hemiacetal by reaction with an alcohol. If the hemiacetal is a sugar, then the acetal is a glycoside.
- Acetal resins based on formaldehyde are high performance engineering plastics with superior abrasion resistance and toughness; may require pretreatments to enhance adhesion properties.
- The product formed by the successive condensation of two alcohols with a single aldehyde. It contains two ether-linked oxygens attached to a central carbon atom.
