Hastelloy bar

Sulfuric acid is a commonly used chemical in the processing sector. Its corrosive effect on service material varies significantly, based on contaminants, temperature and water concentration. It is a problem with micro process equipments with thin walls. These equipments are usually joined by diffusion bonding that may affect material’s properties due to high temperatures and … Continue reading Hastelloy grades for sulfuric acid applications at different temperatures

A major limitation of stainless steel is that it is highly susceptible to chloride based localized attack like crevice, pitting and stress corrosion cracking. Hastelloy C276 is the most resistant nickel based super alloy to the chloride based localized corrosion that limits the applications of austenitic stainless steels. In various cases, stress corrosion cracking was … Continue reading How Nickel based super alloys are superior to traditional stainless steels
