Where can I find information on the corrosion rate of materials in sulfuric acid?
Thread Content
RT. Corrosion rate at 100°C, 98% acid, 316L? I hope kind people can offer some guidance on how to find it. Thank you!
The leader of the corrosion research group is the one who conducts this theoretical research
(1) For information on materials selection for corrosion resistance, please refer to the \"Corrosion Data and Material Selection Handbook\". (2) Corrosion rate of 316L under these operating conditions: a. In 98% sulfuric acid at temperatures of 50°C to 100°C, the corrosion rate is 0.5–1.5 mm/year; it is acceptable, but corrosion is significant. b. In 98% sulfuric acid at 120°C, the corrosion rate exceeds 1.5 mm/year; it is not suitable, as corrosion is severe
Using C276 Hastelloy might be better.
