Foreword

The fourth edition of the Corrosion Resistant Materials Handbook has been completely revised
and vastly expanded, based on the latest available technical data. This well-established and success-
ful reference volume, first published in 1966, will provide useful information which will enable
the concerned engineer or manager to cut losses due to corrosion by choosing suitable commer-
cially available corrosion resistant materials for a particular application. It would also be useful
to equipment designers and others as a valuable screening guide in choosing materials for equip-
ment having specific corrosion resistance requirements.

The great value of this outstanding reference work lies in the extensive cross-indexing of thousands
of substances. The more than 160 detailed tables in the book are arranged by types of corrosion
resistant materials. The Corrosive Material Index is organized by corrosive chemicals and other
corrosive substances. It refers the reader to specific recommendations in the tables. A separate
Trade Name Index and a Company Name and Address Listing are also included.

The various sections in the book cover selected categories of corrosion resistant materials, such
as synthetic resins and polymers; rubbers and elastomers; cements, mortars, and asphalt; ferrous
alloys; nonferrous metals and alloys; and glass, ceramics, and carbon-graphite. A separate section
presents a group of 13 tables which compare the anticorrosive merits of a cross section of com-
mercial engineering and construction materials essential to industry. The tables in the book repre-
sent selections taken directly from manufacturers’ literature made at no cost to, nor influence
from, the makers or distributors of these materials.

The vast amount of information contained in the book is evidenced at once in the extensive table
of contents and the exhaustive indexes.

Advanced composition and production methods developed by Noyes Data


Corporation are employed to bring this durably bound book to you in a
minimum of time. Special techniques are used to close the gap between
“manuscript” and “completed book.” In order to keep the price of the book
to a reasonable level, it has been partially reproduced by photo-offset di-
rectly from the original material and the cost savings passed on to the reader.
Due to this method of publishing, certain portions of the book may be less
legible than desired.

A special outdoor rigid polymer alloy, POLYMAN 507 retains more impact strength after UV exposure than any
competitive material according to UL recognition tests. It is rated UL Bulletin 94 V-O and carries 95°C continuous
use temperature rating. In addition it offers the good electrical properties and tensile strength needed for wiring
devices and small tool housings. A rigid polymer alloy, POLYMAN 509 exhibits low shrinkage (0.0045 in/in) and
combines a 212°F heat distortion temperature with a superior 430,000 flexural modulus to mold and hold strict
dimensional tolerances in critical fit applications such as printed circuit card holders. Its high arc track resistance
and compressive strength, along with a good balance of other properties, qualifies for applications in severe electri-
cal service such as junction boxes and connectors. POLYMAN 511 offers the highest impact strength (83.5 tensile
impact; 320 in lb Gardner impact) of the POLYMAN UL V-O rated rigid polymer alloys. It also has excellent UV
color stability along with the exceptional stiffness and flatness required for large business machine and consumer
appliance housings.

TABLE 1.11: EPOXY RESINS-SHELL CHEMICAL

These amine-cured EPON resin coatings are unique because they cure at room temperature. They are outstanding
for their resistance to heat, solvents, salt water, and most other corrosive materials, and have notable resistance to
mechanical shock and abrasion. EPON resin coatings exhibit excellent adhesion and flexibility over wood,.ferrous
and nonferrous metals, and green or dry concrete. These coatings have outstanding weatherability and the high solids
content which is possible at application viscosity.

Applications for these coatings are as finishes for wood, metal, and concrete in marine and other severely corrosive
environment, as chemical resistant finishes for installed equipment where high-temperature baking is impractical.
Coating formulations must be supplied as two-package systems, i.e., the curing agent packaged separately from the
base component containing the EPON resin. The usable working life is a 10 to 15 hour period after the curing agent
is added.

A high degree of cure is obtained overnight, but about five to seven days are required for maximum chemical and
solvent resistance properties to develop. More rapid cures can be obtained by forcedrying or baking. The most im-
portant reaction involves the crosslinking of the EPON resin with the polyfunctional amine curing agent. The epoxy
coating systems referred to below are as follows:

System 1: A fourcoat Svstembased on two coats of a long oil linseed ester red lead
primer Plus two Coats of a long oil soya ester topcoat for a total film
thickness of 6 to 6 mils.
SWem 2: A fourcoat swtem based on two coats of EPON resin lOOl/EPON curing
agent C-l 11 red lead primer plus two coats of the EPON resin 1001/C-l 11
topcoat for a total film thickness of 6 to 6 mils.
Swtem 3: A four-coat system based on two coats of EPON resin lOOl/EPON curing
agent V-15 red lead primer plus two coats of the EPON resin 1001/V-15
topcoat for a total film thickness of 6 to 6 mils.
System 4: A two-coat n/stem based on EPON resin 815/EPON curing agent H-2 ap-
plied to a total film thickness of 8 to 10 mils.

EXTREN is a proprietary combination of fiberglass reinforcements and thermosetting polyester or vinyl ester resin
systems produced in standard structural shapes and sheets by Morrison Molded Fiber Glass Company. EXTREN is
widely used in industrial construction and maintenance, commercial construction, and as components of industrial
equipment and commercial products. The information below is based on data collected from several years of actual
industrial applications. In addition it is based on conservative evaluation of the changes which occur in certain prop-
erties of replicate laminates after exposures of one year or longer, both in the laboratory and the field, according to
the American Society for Testing Materials (ASTM C-581). These properties include hardness, flexural strength, and
flexural modulus. Surface stability is also a major characteristic and must be evaluated.

HALAR ECTFE is a melt processable fluoropolymer from Allied Corporation. It possesses a unique combination of properties as a result of its chemical struc-
ture-a 1: 1 alternating copolymer of ethylene and chlorotrifluoroethylene. HALAR fluoropolymer offers excellent chemical resistance, good electrical properties, s
broad use temperature range-from cryogenic to 34O”F, and meets the requirements of the UL-94 V-O vertical flame test in thicknesses as low as 7 mils. It is a 7
g
tough material with excellent impact strength over its broad use temperature range. HALAR ECTFE also maintains useful properties on exposure to cobalt 60
5’
radiation at dosages of 200 megarads. It is one of the best fluoropolymers for abrasion resistance. HALAR fluoropolymer is a thermoplastic which can be proc- ’
essed by virtually any technique applicable with polyethylene. It can be extruded, injection molded, blow molded, rotomolded, and applied by ordinary fluidized $
bed or electrostatic coating techniques. It is available in a range of viscosity grades for extrusion and molding applications. HALAR ECTFE powders are available v)’
in three different particle sizes optimized for specific coating processes.

TABLE 1.19: ISOPOLYESTER RESINS-AMOCO CHEMICALS

Corrosion resistant isopolyesters are characterized among resin suppliers and users by the molar ratio of the aro-
matic to the unsaturated acid and by the glycol used in synthesis. In this nomenclature, Amoco’s recommendation
for a cost-effective resin with outstanding corrosion resistance to a broad range of liquids over a wide temperature
range is a 1 : 1 propylene glycol isopolyester. That is, the resin is made with equal molar amounts of maleic anhydride
and isophthalic acid and reacted with a sufficient excess of propylene glycol to ensure esterification to a high molec-
ular weight.

While the basic corrosion resistant resin offers the most versatile range of resistance properties, variations of the
basic formulation suitable for specific applications are available from many resin suppliers. The second table shows
three laboratory variations of the recommended formulation.

The resin with higher levels of maleic anhydride has greater crosslink density and thus offers very good temperature
stability. It should maintain mechanical properties up to 100°C. It also shows better resistance to aromatic solvents
than the basic formulation, although its resistance to mineral acids is not quite as good. Its brittleness may be un-
desirable in some applications.

Adipic acid improves flexibility and neopentyl glycol improves caustic resistance, The gasoline resistance of these
formulations is not as consistent as that of the other formulations shown in the second table. Adipic acid generally
lowers resistance properties.

TABLE 1.22: NYLON REINFORCED VINYL HOSE-SETHCO DIVISION, MET PRO CORP.

Sethco’s NRV (Nylon Reinforced Vinyl) grade hose may be used at working pressures ranging from 100 to 250 psi
(depending upon size). Its flex life exceeds that of rubber and its characteristic inertness satisfies requirements for
a wide range of industrial and laboratory applications.

The reinforcing nylon mesh is encapsulated in the walls of the clear vinyl, providing a high strength, smooth surface
hose. The imbedded mesh is never in contact with fluid or atmosphere. Working temperatures range from 20” to
175°F as discharge hose and 20” to 140°F as suction hose. The vinyl is fire resistant and self-extinguishing.

estimate the effects of exposure to the environment on a
Noryl application.

Test Procedure

1. Place the tensile bars in the strain jigs which dupli-


cate the stress levels to be checked. For a standard
test use 0%. l/2% and 1% for unfilled grades and O%,

Reporting Results

The contact material is considered compatible if there is no


cracking, embrittlement or less than 10% loss in tensile
properties. The material is considered marginal if there is
no cracking, crazing or less than 20% loss in tensile properties.
An incompatible material is one which cracks, crazes or
loses more than 20% of its tensile properties. (The above
are compared against a control).

TABLE 1.26: POLYALLOMER-EASTMAN CHEMICAL PRODUCTS

The effects of various chemicals on TENITE Polyallomer Formula 5020 were determined by immersing weighed
and measured injection-molded samples of the plastic in the chemicals and maintaining them at a temperature of
73°F (23°C) for one year. After one year, each sample of plastic was removed from the jar in which it was tested,
wiped dry, and quickly weighed and measured. The appearance of the sample after exposure to the test medium
was also recorded.

The shelf-life tests were conducted using 50 ml capacity, 0.010 inch (0.25 mm) wall thickness blow-molded bottles
of TENITE Polyallomer 5020 filled with selected household items. The filled bottles were stored at temperatures
of 73°F (23°C) and 140°F (60°C) for one year. Changes in bottle weight and appearance were determined at the
end of the test period.

Polyallomer is highly resistant to chemical attack and to stress-cracking. However, a few chemicals produce swelling
and attack the surface slightly. These chemicals are mainly chlorinated compounds, aromatic hydrocarbons, and
the higher aliphatic hydrocarbons, such as gasoline.

TABLE 1.30: POLYETHER BLOCK AMIDES-RILSAN

PEBAX is ATOCHEM’s registered trade name for a family of polymers known as polyether block amides (PEBA).
The structure of all PEBAX products comprises linear and regular chains of rigid polyamide segments and flexible
polyether segments. In addition to their copolymeric structure, the various grades of PEBAX show other original
characteristics: very wide range of flexibility; absence of any plasticizer; excellent impact resistance, even at low
temperatures; little variation in flexibility between -40°C and +8O”C; low density; very high elastic memory; ex-
cellent mechanical properties; and good chemical resistance.

TABLE 1.31: POLYETHYLENE-EASTMAN CHEMICAL PRODUCTS

Two-inch diameter by ‘/s-inch thick disks injection molded from a 0.918 density TENITE Polyethylene formula-
tion were immersed in the chemicals listed in the tabulation and stored under a constant temperature of 73OF for
one year. The disks were weighed and measured at the beginning of the test period and again at the end. The per-
cent change in weight and thickness was calculated for each chemical at the end of the test. The change in appear-
ance was also noted.

Chemical resistance of polyethylene is density related-improving with increasing density. Therefore, the lowest
density formulation of the TENITE Polyethylene family was tested to represent the greatest change that would be
expected from contact with the various chemicals.

1900 UHMW Polymer is an ultrahigh molecular weight, high density polyethylene resin having a molecular weight
range between 3 and 6 million. The extraordinary wear properties of parts manufactured from 1900 UHMW Polymer
result in superior replacement parts or long-performance components on original equipment. Used either way, they
offer outstanding resistance to impact, abrasion, and chemicals, plus high energy absorption and self-lubricating
properties.

TABLE 1.33: POLYETHYLENE-LINED ETHYLENE-VINYL ACETATE TUBING-THERMOPLASTIC


SCIENTIFICS INC.

BEV-A-LINE, translucent, flexible tubing for purity systems, combines two tubings in one: an ethylene vinyl ace-
tate shell and a polyethylene liner. Liner and shell are merged by a patented extrusion process.

The shell excels in durability with superior aging characteristics. Tubing burst strength surpasses that of PVC. BEV-
A-LINEIV retains flexibility at temperatures from -60” to 160°F and BEV-A-LINE V HT withstands temperatures
from -60” to 200°F.

The liner is ideal for use where purity must be maintained and good resistance to alcohols, acids, caustics and sol-
vents is required. This tubing will resist stress-cracking. Its inert and neutral contact surface provides a stable environ-
ment in which the pH of the content is essentially maintained. The interior is exceptionally resistant to stains and
it resists absorption of liquids, stays translucent and cleans easily.

TABLE 1.34: POLYETHYLENE RESINS-U.S.I. CHEMICALS

PETROTHENE resins are available across the entire range of polyethylene densities 0.91 to 0.96. The variations in
density appear very small, but the effect of even a very small change in density on certain essential properties is very
marked. There are many applications for which resins of higher density and many others for which those of lower
density may be preferable. The three density ranges of polyethylene are:

Low density 0.910-0.925 g/cc


Medium density 0.926-0.940 g/cc
High density (linear) 0.941-0.965 g/cc

TABLE 1.36: POLYETHYLENE TEREPHTHALATE-BASED COPOLYESTER-EASTMAN CHEMICAL


PRODUCTS

KODAR PETG Copolyester 6763 is a clear, amorphous polymer based on poly(ethylene terephthalate) and has a
number average molecular weight (Mn) of about 26,000. To obtain the data shown below, sections of unstressed in-
jection-molded tensile bars l/s inch (3.2 mm) thick were weighed and measured and immersed in the chemical or re-
agent shown and stored at 73°F (23°C) for a period of one year. At the end of the test period, each sample of plastic
was removed from the jar in which it was tested, wiped dry, and quickly weighed and measured again and the
changes in weight and thickness were calculated. The appearance of the samr !e after exposure to the test medium
was also recorded. Ordinarily, a plastic would not be suggested for continuous immersion in a reagent that causes an
increase of 5% or more in weight or thickness. This does not imply that a change in weight or thickness of less than
5% necessarily indicates suitability for immersion.

The results of these tests showed that KODAR PETG Copolyester 6763 is resistant to a variety of chemicals, high-
molecular-weight esters, aliphatic hydrocarbons, and dilute solutions of acids and salts. PETG 6763 was significantly
affected by concentrated acetic acid, acetone, benzene, toluene, carbon tetrachloride, dimethyl formamide, and
phenol and was completely deteriorated by concentrated nitric and sulfuric acids and by ethylene dichloride.

TABLE 1.37: POLYMETHYLPENTENE-WESTLAKE PLASTICS

The high resistance of TPX (polymethylpentene) to chemical attack, combined with its excellent transparency and
high temperature performance, makes it particularly suitable for a wide range of applications. TPX polymers are
highly resistant to inorganic environments, are not attacked by aqueous solutions of inorganic salts nor by most min-
eral acids or alkalis even in a concentrated form. They are, however, affected by oxidizing reagents. TPX polymers
show good resistance to many organic chemicals although, as with other polyolefins, absorption does occur in cer-
tain cases leading to a loss of rigidity and a decrease in yield stress. Tests on injection molded samples at 20°C (68OF)
and 60°C (140°F) over a period of 3 months are listed and give an indication of the behavior in practice.

TABLE 1.38: POLYPHENYLENE SULFIDES-PHILLIPS CHEMICAL

RYTON polyphenylene sulfide resins and compounds are engineering thermoplastics developed by Phillips Petro-
leum Company. Available in both molding and coating grades, these materials feature excellent dimensional stabil-
ity, inherent flame retardancy, thermal stability, chemical resistance, desirable electrical properties and ease of proc-
essing.

RYTON resin compounds are resistant to a very broad range of chemical materials and at elevated temperatures are
considered second only to PTFE in overall resistance to corrosive and hostile chemical environments. Environ-
ments to which RYTON compounds do not have adequate resistance include oxidizing environments such as 50%
nitric acid, 30% sulfuric acid, sodium hypochlorite, bromine water, etc., all at 200°F (93°C) or above.

*Injection-molded disks 2 inches in diameter and %-inch thick were immersed in the chemicals and stored under a constant temper-
ature of 73°F for one year. Polypropylene is highly resistant to chemical attack and to stress-cracking. However, a few chemicals
produce swelling and attack the surtace slightly. These chemicals are mainly chlorinated compounds, aromatic hydrocarbons, and
the higher aliphatic hydrocarbons, such as gasoline.

TABLE 1.42: POLYSULFONE-UNION CARBIDE

UDEL Polysulfone is a high performance thermoplastic known for its high temperature resistance [3OO”F (149°C)
UL listing for continuous use], hydrolytic stability, and excellent close tolerance moldability. Polysulfone also
possesses good resistance to a wide variety of aggressive environmental conditions. In the most general terms, POlY-
sulfone is highly resistant to aqueous mineral acids, alkali, and salt solutions. Resistance to detergents and hydro-
carbon oils is good, even at elevated temperatures under moderate levels of stress. In polar organic solvents such as
ketones, chlorinated hydrocarbons, and aromatic hydrocarbons, polysulfone will swell, dissolve, or stress-crack.

The above ratjngs are based on the consideration of chemical resistance only. Potable water will not attack flexible vinyls, but
to store it safely from the standpoint of toxicity, a specially formulated vinyl must be used. This would also apply to any
material that is intended for human consumption. In this latter category, the possibility of the migration of very small
amounts of plasticizer having an effect on the taste of the stored liquid should be considered.

@Hydrochloric Acid must not be contaminated with organic chlorides (500 ppm max. concentration)
@Applies only to inhibited hydrogen peroxide. Unrnhibited 10% H202 will not deteriorate lining, but lining will contaminate
Solution.
02699 material is specially formulated for pit 81 pond lining applicationsand is generally serviceable after installation between
-20 deg. and +150 deg. F. It has a bacteriostat which resists attack by soil microorganisms. Some of the recommended uses
for particular compounds are shown above, however specific applrcations should be checked with the factory, particularly
those containing mixtures of the compounds mentioned above.
@Concentrations of 10% or less are suitable with all vinyls listed at right for non-food use.
@All concentrations left blank are 100% or Saturated solution.

FORAFLON@ in general resists mineral acids, bases, saline solutions, oxidizing agents, and halogens.
However, it is attacked by concentrated hot sulphuric acid or nitric acid and very concentrated alkaline
solutions.
FORAFLON” resists alcohols, chlorinated solvents, aliphatic and aromatic hydrocarbons and crude oil.
It swells in certain polar solvents like ketones and esters and dissolves in aprotic solvents like
dimethylacetamide, dimethylformamide and N methylpyrrolidone. It is also attacked by hot amines.
As an indication, the following table shows the good resistance of FORAFLONQD immersed under stress
in some particularly aggressive reagents.
Test pieces are cut according to ASTM D 1708 from an extruded plate 0.7 mm thick, and either unbent
or bent by the device recommended in standard ASTM D 1693: the.y are immersed in a reagent at the
temperature indicated.
The tensile properties are checked periodically.
For the reagents indicated, the yield strength of both bent and unbent test pieces varied by at least 10%
after one year, as compared with that of a control left in the air at the same temperature.

PARTIAL LIST OF CHEMICALS AND MATERIALS COMPATIBLE WITH TEFLON HOSE

“Teflon”@ TFE fluorocarbon resin is so broadly chemically resistant that factors such as temperature, pressure and their
fluctuations are usually the primary influence on the serviceability of this material in a specific application. Solvents and gases
known to require special consideration due to these factors are indicated by asterisk(*).
Also, selection of material for fittings is influenced by reagent, concentration, duration of exposure and other
considerations. For guidance only, our preliminary recommendations for coupling material are indicated by letter following
the reagent, thus: (B) brass; (Cl carbon steel; (S) stainless steel; (M) monel.

Teflon is attacked bv only two classes of chemiulr:

Haveg 61 NA can be used with varying concentrations of NaOH, even concentra-


tions up to 60% at elevated temperatures; however, it is affected . There is a
surface effect that can contribute to contamination of the solution.
Haveg 61 NA should be considered only where NaOH is used to neutralize acidic
conditions or as a reactant in a particular process.

Haveg 41 NA, when exposed to 0.5% NaOH in water, will be seriously attacked
overnight. 1% NaOH will begin its attack immediately.

Comparison of commercial corrosion resistant resins after one year immersion

The lengths of the bars reflect the tested performance of the resins after one year in the indicated environments.
The Composite Ratings are the ten year performances projected from the 1, 3, 6 and 12 month evaluations. All
laminates were made according to ASTM Method C581 with a glass fiber content of 25f2%. To assure high quality,
the ATLAC-based laminates were supplied by ICI United States. The other laminates were fabricated in the labora-
tory.

Rubbers and Elastomers

TABLE 2.1: ACRYLIC ELASTOMER-AMERICAN CYANAMID

CYANACRYL is especially noted for its ability to withstand most lubricating oils at 350°F (176°C). including
those sulfur modified lubricants, essential in the performance of hot running modern cars. Other petroleum based
oils, such as high and low aniline point lubricating aliphatic hydrocarbons offer opportunities for outstanding per-
formance by CYANACRYL. Resistance to chlorinated hydrocarbons, degreasers, LP gases, fuel oils, animal and
vegetable oils and silicate esters is very good. Aromatic hydrocarbons, such as toluol, have some moderate to severe
effects but ketones, some alcohols and oxgenated solvents can cause severe swelling. Nonpetroleum based brake
fluid, phosphate ester, and diester synthetic lubricants can have a severe effect so CYANACRYL should be tested
in these environments before using. CYANACRYL shows “fair” resistance to dilute and concentrated acids and
bases. Therefore, caution or a “test first” method is suggested when considering it for this type of application.

TABLE 2.2: FLUOROELASTOMER-ELKHART RUBBER

In many applications, AFLAS outperforms other elastomers because of the following characteristics: (1) High tem-
perature resistance (400°F long term; 55O+‘F shorter term); (2) Resistance to a wide range of chemicals (including
acids, bases, steam, sour (H2S) oil and gas with amine corrosion inhibitors, oils and lubricants, hydraulic fluids of
all types, brake fluids, bleaches, oxidizing agents, alcohol, etc.); (3) Durable physical properties; (4) Excellent
electrical resistance-Dielectric constant at 60 Hz of 2.5.

There are three grades of AFLAS. All provide essentially the same heat and chemical resistance but they differ in
molecular weight (which can affect processing and physical properties). AFLAS 150E is the lowest molecularweight,
AFLAS 150P is intermediate weight, and AFLAS IOOH is the highest molecular weight. AFLAS 100H is generally
recommended for optimal extrusion, gas blistering, and compression set resistance.

The following chart provides an indication of the chemical resistance of AFLAS. Since temperature, concentrations,
mixtures, and elastomer compound selection can affect performance, this chart provides guidelines only. Unless
otherwise noted, the tests were run on a 75 Shore A carbon black filled AFLAS 150P formulation with the follow-
ing properties:

Where available, the chart shows the change in hardness (in Shore A points) and volume as well as the percentage of
original tensile strength and elongation retained after immersion in the test fluid under the time and temperature
conditions denoted. In other instances, volume change only is shown.

ST polysulfide rubber is a millable gum elastomer prepared from bis (2chloroethyl) formal and
sodium polysulfide. Vulcanizates exhibit outstanding resistance to a broac’ spectrum of oils and
solvents, to gas permeability, low temperature, ozone and weathering. Typical uses include gas
meter diaphragms, rollers, printing blankets, o-rings, and many specialty molded items.

All of the solvent Immersion tests were run with the following recipe:

TABLE 2.5: POLYSULFIDE SYNTHETIC RUBBER SEALANT-STONHARD

STDNLAST is a heavy-duty, two-component synthetic rubber sealant. It adheres tenaciously to just about all build-
ing materials currently in use, and is unaffected by exposure to water or most corrosive gases. STONLAST’s great
flexibility allows the material to expand and contract to compensate for movement, vibration, etc., and it retains
those properties over a wide range of temperatures (-65O to +215’F).

The purpose of this “guide” is to aid in determining the potential value of Stonlast sealant when exposed
to the damaging effects of erosive chemical spillages.

The test procedure used was to totally immerse cured samples of Stonlast in the chemrcals listed for a
period of 30 days at normal room temperature per ASTM 0471.62T. Method B. (This is an exceptionally
severe test, since n-lost areas subject to chemical spillages such as these are “flushed down” periodically
with water as part of the normal maintenance operation )
The resultant resistance of Stonlast to the various chemicals is related using the symbols listed below.
(It is assumed that normal “good housekeeping procedures” are used, includtng a daily flushing down
with clean water.)

Exxon butyl rubber and its chlorinated analog, chlorobutyl rubber are isobutylene-isoprene copolymers. They are
basically inert, nonpolar, stable elastomers which exhibit outstanding resistance to attack by a great many differ-
ent chemicals.

VISTALON elastomers are classified generically as either ethylene-propylene copolymers (EPM) or ethylene-propyl-
ene terpolymers (EPDM). All grades of VISTALON EPM have a completely saturated hydrocarbon chain which
makes them highly resistant to attack by chemical agents such as oxygen, ozone, acids, and the like that seek to
react at the site of a double bond.

Exxon elastomers offer good resistance to water, inorganic salt solutions, bases, synthetic hydraulic fluids, ethylene
glycol base antifreeze formulations, and to most inorganic acids. When immersed in organic compounds, Exxon
elastomers show good resistance to attack by acids, amines, and oxygenated compounds-alcohols, aldehydes, esters,
ethers, and ketones. Resistance to detergents and soaps is excellent whether in concentrated form (as purchased)
or in 1% solutions which approximate the concentrations of these materials commonly used in household appli-
cations.

Exxon elastomers display good resistance to attack by animal or vegetable oils. However, they are like other petro-
leum derived synthetic polymers in that their resistance to the attack of hydrocarbons, oils, and other petroleum
based chemicals is low. Only VISTALON 6505 blends with nitrile and polychloroprene rubbers maintain good
physical properties after prolonged exposure to these materials.

TABLE 3.1: EPOXY-BASE FLOOR SURFACING SYSTEMS-STONHARD

STONCLAD is a three-component, epoxy-base floor surfacing system. It was specifically designed for surfacing and
patching industrial floors exposed t o corrosive spillages and abrasive, wheeled traffic. STONCLAD-HT i s a three-
component, epoxy-base floor surfacing system. It was specifically designed for surfacing and Fatching industrial
floors exposed t o corrosive spillages and abrasives, wheeled traffic a t temperatures above 140 F (60°C),but less
than 250°F (122°C).

The test procedure used was to totally immerse cured samples of STONCLAD in the chemicals listed
for a period of 90 days at normal room temperatures. (This is a n exceptionally severe test, since most
floors subject t o chemical spillages such as these are "flushed down" periodically with water as part of
the normal floor maintenance operation.)
The resultant resistance of STONCLAD t o the various chemicals is rated using the symbols listed
below. (It is assumed that normal "good housekeeping procedures" are used, including a daily flushing
down with clean water.)

RATING CODE
E - Excellent OS - Suitable for use
G - Good where "occasional spillages"
F - Fair occur, when followed by
NR - Not Recommended immediate water flushing.

TABLE 3.9: URETHANE ASPHALT MEMBRANE-PENNWALT

PENNGUARD Adhesive/Membrane is a twocomponent urethane asphalt composition used in the installation of the
PENNGUARD Block Lining System. As an adhesive, it serves t o bond the PENNGUARD Block to a prepared sub-
strate, and as a membrane, it serves as a moisture and chemical-resistant barrier. TUFCHEM I 1 Membrane i s an im-
proved, two component, urethane asphalt based membrane system, that can be used, within i t s limitations, to pro-
tect concrete and steel surfaces from chemical attack and abrasion.

H.E.S. and HB Mortars differ from other siliceous, silicate, or silica mortars in resisting exposures between pH 0.0
and pH 8.0 with the exception of acid fluorides and HF acid. In addition, they can be used in glycol acetate,
potassium sulfate or persulfate, sodium sulfide and trisodium phosphate, all of which will damage other siliceous
mortars.

TABLE 4.2: AUSTENITIC STAINLESS STEELS-JESSOP STEEL

Jessop Steel’s corrosion resistant engineering alloys, JS700 and JS777, are high-alloy, fully austenitic, super stain-
less steels. These alloys are proven problem-solvers in many applications where corrosive conditions are too severe
for the standard grades of stainless steel. They have also provided cost-effective alternatives to more expensive
nickel-base and titanium-base alloys. JS700 and JS777 are much more highly alloyed than the standard stainless
steels. These grades contain nominally 25% nickel, 20% chromium and 4.5% molybdenum. The combination of the
three major alloying elements gives JS700 and JS777 a high degree of resistance to stress corrosion cracking. Neither
alloy is completely immune to this type of corrosion failure, as can be shown by such severe tests as stressed expo-

TABLE 4.3: FERRITIC STAINLESS STEELS-ALLEGHENY LUDLUM (contmwd)

The E-BRITE alloy is a high-purity specialty ferritic stainless steel which combines excellent resistance to corrosion
with good fabrication characteristics. It offers outstanding resistance to stress corrosion cracking along with superior
Pitting and crevice corrosion resistance, compared to conventional ferritic and austenitic stainless steels. General
corrosion resistance is usually better than that provided by these standard materials and in some cases is even
better than that of some nickel-base alloys. The E-BRITE alloy also is designed to provide excellent resisiance to
intergranular corrosion. Added to all this corrosion resistance are unique ductility characteristics, particularly when
compared to other ferritic stainless steels.

Allegheny Ludlum Stainless Steel Type 439, a titanium stabilized, 18% chromium alloy, also known as ASTM XM-8
and by the IJNS designation S43035, is a ferritic stainless steel designed to resist corrosion in a variety of oxidizing
environments from fresh water to boiling acids. It may be used either annealed, cold formed or as welded in many
applications where other stainless steel alloys such as Type 304, Type 410, Type 409 and Type 430 are used. Type
439 may also be used in many oxidizing environments where Type 304 is considered adequate in terms of general
corrosion resistance but is considered subject to chloride stress corrosion cracking.

Type 439 is resistant to attack by potable water and One of the most important corrosion properties of
many mildly or moderately corrosive chemical Type 439 is resistance to chloride stress corrosion
environments which are oxidizing in nature. In various cracking beyond the capabilltles of ConventIonal
chloride solutions, study has shown pitting resistance austenitic grades. This resistance is provided by the
of Type 439 superior to that of Type 304. In addition, ferritic structure and low nickel content of Type 439.

waters used in heat exchangers.

MF-1 is the designation for a corrosion resisting steel developed by Allegheny Ludlum originally for automotive
exhaust system applications. An 11% chromium alloy, MF-1 is a functional corrosion resistant material that has
served outstandingly in strong acid condensates that form in automobile mufflers ard tailpipes. The functional
uses of MF-1 as a corrosion resistant material for many other special applications can be equally attractive; suet-
as replacement for carbon steels, to avoid painting or other maintenance, or for galvanized steels under severe
corrosive conditions.

MULTIMET alloy is an iron-base alloy for use in applications involving high stresses at temperatures up to 15OO’F
(816 C), and moderate stresses at up to 2000°F (1093°C). It has good oxidation resistance, ductility and is readily
fabricated. Its high-temperature properties are inherent and are not dependent upon age hardening.

CORROSION RESISTANCE OF MULTIMET@ ALLOY

All results are expressed in mils (mm) penetration per year. Acid strengths
are given in percent by weight. In some instances, no measurable penetration
could be observed. These instances are noted by the word, “Nil.” All data are
steady-state as calculated from a minimum of five 24-hr. test periods.
All data were obtained using corrosion specimens prepared from 12-gage,
solution heat-treated sheet.

The TRISTELLE alloys were designed to resist corrosion and all forms of wear. In particular, they were developed
to withstand galling, the gross damage commonly encountered in metal-to-metal sliding systems. By virtue of their
excellent resistance to cavitation erosion, they are particularly recommended for valve service.

TABLE 4.8: STAINLESS STEEL-ARMCO STAINLESS STEEL PRODUCTS

Armco NITRONIC 50 Stainless Steel provides a combination of corrosion resistance and strength. This austenitic
stainless steel has corrosion resistance greater than that provided by Types 316, 316L, 317 and even 317L. plus
approximately twice the yield strength at room temperature. In addition, Armco NITRONIC 50 has very good
mechanical properties at both elevated and sub-zero temperatures.

This is the material for equipment requiring excellent corrosion resistance-including that in which Types 316 and
316L stainless steels are marginal. NITRONIC 50 is an effective material for the petroleum, petrochemical, chemical,
pulp and paper, textile, food processing and marine industries. Components using the combination of excellent cor-
rosion resistance and high strength currently include pumps, valves and fittings; fasteners, cables, chains, screens and
wire cloth; marine hardware, boat shafting, heat exchanger parts, springs and photographic equipment. A wide range
of additional applications is made possible by high strength and toughness at sub-zero temperatures, low magnetic
permeability even after severe cold working or exposure to sub-zero temperatures, and excellent mechanical proper-
ties at temperatures up to 1200 “F (649°C).

CORROSION RATE UNITS: The most commonly


accepted unit for expressing the rate of corrosion of a
metal is mils per year, abbreviated mpy. One mil is
equal to 0.001”.
Resistant = less than 1 mpy attack
Mild action = l-5 mpy attack
Moderate action = 5-20 mpy attack

638 Corrosion Resistant Materials Handbook

TABLE 5.5: ALUMINUM-ZINC COATING-BETHLEHEM STEEL

GALVALUME is the trade name for a patented sheet steel product having a coating of corrosion-resistant aluminum-
zinc alloy applied by a continuous hot dipping process. The alloy coating of aluminum and zinc combines the best
properties of both metals. It has the corrosion resistance, high-temperature oxidation resistance, and heat reflectivity
characteristic of aluminum coatings, with the formability and galvanic protection of cut edges characteristic of zinc
coatings. GALVALUME sheet, both bare and painted, is intended for applications where superior corrosion resis-
tance is required, as in roofing, siding, pre-engineered buildings, appliances, air conditioner housings, and other uses.
GALVALUME sheet is also used for applications where resistance to oxidation at elevated temperatures is impor-
tant, such as fireplaces, toasters and automotive exhaust systems.

Atmospheric Corrosion Resistance: Based on 13-year atmospheric test results (see Figure I), it is estimated that
GALVALUME sheet will outlast galvanized by two to four times in marine, industrial and rural atmospheres. When
compared to aluminum coated sheet steel, GALVALUME sheet has superior corrosion resistance at sheared edges.

Salt Spray Corrosion Resistance: With cut edges protected, the coating on GALVALUME sheet steel lasts five to
ten times longer than the coating on galvanized (see Figure 2). In salt spray tests conducted with bare cut edges
exposed, the corrosion resistance is typically three to four times that of galvanized (see Figure 2).

*Copper and copper alloys are not attacked by dry gases at room temperature or lower. Acetylene forms an explosive compound
with copper when moist and alloys containing more than 65% copper should not be used with the wet gas under pressure. Moist
carbon dioxide is corrosive to brasses high in zinc but may be handled by other copper alloys. Tin coatings are highly resistant
to moist carbon dioxide. Moist chlorine gas is corrosive to all copper alloys. Sulfur dioxide and sulfur trioxide in the presence of
moisture form sulfurous and sulfuric acid, respectively. Copper, Red Brass, Everdur, Phosphor Bronze and Cupro Nickel, 30%
715 should be considered for handling these gases when moist.
**Copper and its alloys are resistant to corrosion by most foods and beverages. However, consideration must be given to the possi-
bility that such products handled in equipment made of copper or its alloys may dissolve traces of copper in amounts sufficient
to discolor the product or alter its taste. In such cases it is recommended that the metal be tin-coated.
TCopper alloys are resistant to most organic solvents such as the acetates, alcohols, aldehydes, ketones, petroleum solvents and
ether. Organic acids in aqueous solution may be handled by copper and most copper alloys but corrosion will be accelerated if
air is present. Binary copper-zinc alloys containing more than 15% zinc may be attacked by dezincification corrosion. Copper
alloys may be definitely corroded by chloride hydrocarbons, such as carbon tetrachloride and trichloroethylene, at the boiling
point in the presence of moisture unless the hydrocarbons are stabilized by a neutralizer. Of the copper alloys, Cupro Nickel,
30% 715 and tin-coated metal offer the best resistance to moist chloride hydrocarbons.
ttCopper and copper alloys are rapidly corroded by oxidizing acids such as nitric and chromic. Corrosion by other acids is generally
dependent on the presence of oxygen or some other oxidizing agent in the solution. Brasses containing not more than 15% zinc,
and special brasses, can be used with many acids, but, in general, high-zinc brasses should not be used with acids due to the dan-
ger of rapid corrosion by dezincification. Copper, Red Brass, Phosphor Bronze, Everdur, Aluminum Bronze and Cupro Nickel
offer good resistance to corrosion by hot and cold dilute sulfuric acid and to corrosion by cold concentrated sulfuric acid. Inter-
mediate concentrations of sulfuric acid sometimes are less corrosive to copper alloys than either concentrated acid or dilute
acid. Concentrated sulfuric acid may be corrosive at elevated temperatures due to breakdown of the acid with the formation of
metallic sulfides and sulfur dioxide gas causing localized pitting attack. Tests indicate that the copper alloys may be corroded by
pitting attack by 90 to 95% sulfuric acid at about 122OF (5O’C). by 80% acid at about 16O’F (71’C) and by 60% acid at about
212’F (1OO’C).

TABLE 5.15: MAGNESIUM-DOW CHEMICAL

In the table the concentration of the chemical is shown in percent. Values of 100% refer to the pure substance in
dry or liquid form. Concentrations less than 100% refer to water solutions of the chemical. The other column in the
table indicates whether or not a test under actual operating conditions is warranted. A “Yes” in this column means
that magnesium is basically resistant to the chemical or that laboratory tests have shown enough promise to warrant
testing under actual service conditions.
