High-temperature resistant lithium chloride corrosion-resistant materials
Thread Content
Anhydrous lithium chloride needs to be melted at around 750°C, under normal atmospheric pressure. What material can withstand such high temperatures without reacting with or being corroded by lithium chloride? I tried regular carbon steel, which corrodes easily; as a result, it turned red after cooling
At such high temperatures, ordinary carbon steel cannot be used in the first place; add corrosion to it, and it becomes completely ruined
Carbon steel cannot be used at 350 degrees; low-carbon steel cannot be used above 420 degrees, and stainless steel cannot be used above 600 degrees. For a temperature of 750 degrees, the only information I have is that it relates to the materials used in ethylene cracking furnaces; those furnaces operate at 1100 degrees, but it’s not clear whether such materials are resistant to corrosion by lithium chloride.
Can’t the furnace tubes of a heating furnace withstand around 800°C?
310s is commonly known as 2520
