Corrosion resistance in industrial and petro-chemical pipes

Published on Tuesday, February 9, 2010 by

Pipes and fittings, including flanges, are made of one of the highest grades of stainless steel, when applied to heavy industrial applications and transportation of dangerous goods substances.Higher stainless steel grades are not only highly durable but also very resistant to corrosion. Inside the industry and the petrochemical industry, the risk of corrosion is a serious problem. Corrosion may take several forms.Crevice corrosion, for example, caused a steel pipe to weaken the vulnerabilities that could be seamless. Pitting on the other hand is very difficult to identify a type of corrosion that very small areas along the pipe affected. Lassen, the existence of bacteria, chemicals and heat can also cause corrosion.If tubes used for transporting hazardous substances, either in supermarkets or in a local factory, corrosion is a serious threat to public health, chemical leaks, gas explosions and burn hazard if the pipes are damaged in a way.At ChemiPetro we have a very efficient fittings and alloy steel flanges, including the following materials: stainless steel '6% Moly 'superaustenitic: this is very good corrosion resistance, which is a combination of chromium, molybdenum and nitrogen. This stainless steel alloy is particularly effective against corrosion resistance in chlorine-based materials such as salt water, and a wide range of stainless steel chemicals.Duplex: essentially a combination of two different crystalline forms of steel base, is ie, ferrite and austenite, this material is very effective in the treatment of chemicals and pressure of heat, water and salt. The lower alloy content, duplex has the advantage of being less expensive than the 6% the Moly.Super duplex stainless steel which provides resistance to corrosion, even more than two sides, due to the addition of chromium, molybdenum and nitrogen.
