Hydrofluoric acid

However it is chemically categorized as a weaker acid than hydrochloric or sulfuric acid, some materials are extremely corrosive more than even hydrofluoric acid. Use of gold and platinum are fully resistant to corrosion in aqueous solutions. The engineering materials that are significantly used in hydrofluoric acid owe their corrosion resistance to the development of … Continue reading Corrosion resistance behaviour of Nickel alloys in hydrofluoric acid

Inconel is a high nickel containing alloy. It consists of the maximum nickel content and offers resistance specifically at the elevated temperatures. It is an excellent material for use in the sulfur free conditions. Inconel alloy can be utilized from cryogenic to above 1200oF. It is broadly utilized in the chemical plants. The applications include … Continue reading Inconel and Hastelloy alloy C-Corrosion resistance properties
