Abstract

Abstract Corrosion tests involving titanium and other metals were reported in a previous article by Gegner and Wilson.1 This investigation was continued; results of additional exposures yielding corrosion rates on 49 different materials are shown herein. Corrosion spool results were confirmed in a number of instances by testing titanium equipment. Valves, reboilers, heating coils, cooling coils, steam tracer tubing, atomizer wheels, pump impellers, equipment plates and thermowells were installed in environments such as calcium chloride liquors, hypochlorous acid, wet chlorine gas, calcium hypochlorite solution, chlorine-containing sodium chloride brine, and nitric acid. Failures of titanium equipment were rare. Permanent use of titanium appeared to be justified in the majority of installations. 6.3.15
