Is it possible to use a stainless steel reactor to treat samples at 450 degrees in ammonia during experiments?
Thread Content
I want to treat the samples that have undergone anodization using a hydrothermal reactor; ammonia water needs to be added to the reactor, and the treatment should take place at a temperature of 450 degrees. Is this idea feasible? I’ve seen that stainless steel is the material that can withstand the highest temperatures available on the market, but ammonia is somewhat corrosive; I’m not sure whether it can tolerate such high temperatures Or are there other ways to achieve both of these processes simultaneously? Thank you all!
Sorry, the internet speed is slow; I sent it again
It is possible to have a Hastelloy reactor custom-made by the manufacturer; it can withstand high temperatures and is resistant to corrosion, though its price is relatively high. Stainless steel reactors can also handle such temperatures without issue, but it’s best to consult the manufacturer regarding the materials used in order to determine the level of corrosion resistance. We can discuss it in detail
