The characteristics of HCI are similar to those of dry CI. There is also a critical temperature that causes the corrosion rate of metal materials to increase sharply. For some corrosion test data, see Table 2-27, Table 2-28, and Table 2-29. Combining these corrosion data, it can be considered tha...Read more »

HF gas is a common medium for certain chemical processing. In high temperature hydrogen fluoride, Ni201, monel400, inconel 600, C-276 and 00Cr16Ni65Mo2Ti alloys all have suitable corrosion resistance, and have been successfully applied to practical engineering. Some corrosion test data are shown ...Read more »

Fluorine is the most powerful and most active halogen element. Its strongest oxidation potential makes it form compounds with all common elements. This property determines that it can react directly with the metal to form metal fluorides. The properties of the fluoride protective film are directl...Read more »

In caustic, universal austenitic stainless steels can only be used below 100oC in concentrations below 50%. Nickel and its corrosion resistant alloys exhibit excellent resistance to caustic alkali corrosion, and the corrosion resistance of the alloy increases as the nickel content increases. Prac...Read more »

Corrosion in Organic Acids The corrosiveness of organic acids is not strong. Corrosion test data in formic acid, acetic acid, and propionic acid show that Ni200, Monel400, and nickel-base and iron-nickel-based corrosion-resistant alloys containing Cr, Mo all show excellent results in boiling solu...Read more »

In chemical processing, mixed acid media are often encountered. The corrosion behavior of corrosion resistant alloys in mixed acid media depends on the type of mixed acid, the concentration of acid, and the temperature of the solution.
