What materials are suitable for storage tanks and pipes containing 50% alkaline solution?
Thread Content
Considering the corrosion characteristics of an alkali solution at 50% concentration, what materials are most suitable for use in storage tanks and pipelines for large-scale industrial application? What is the crystallization temperature of the other 50% of the alkaline solution?
Storing and transporting alkali solutions at 50% concentration usually requires corrosion-resistant materials, such as polyethylene (PE), polypropylene (PP), polyvinyl chloride (PVC), and stainless steel (such as 316L). The crystallization temperature of 50% alkali solutions varies depending on the specific alkali; for example, a 50% sodium hydroxide solution begins to crystallize at around 15 degrees Celsius. .
Is nickel plating of steel also feasible?
