Conclusions
-
1.
None of the metals tested has an absolute resistance in mother liquor either at high or low temperature.
-
2.
The most stable metal at low and high temperatures is the VT1 alloy and the chromium carbide alloy containing 15% Ni.
-
3.
In hot mother liquor only highly alloyed chromium steels are stable; the most stable are Kh23N28M3D3T, Kh17N13M2T, and Kh25N15MDA steels. The corrosion rate of these steels is less than 0.1 mm/year.
-
4.
Steels not alloyed with titanium and steels with low chromium and nickel concentrations and no more than 2% Mo can be used in contact with mother liquor, but they are less resistant than Kh23N18, Kh17N12M2T, Kh18N9T, Kh27N5MT, etc.
-
5.
Low nickel steels, medium chromium steel without nickel, chromium steel with molybdenum, and low alloyed structural steels are inadequate for use in contact with mother liquor solution.
-
6.
Molybdenum decreases the corrosion resistance of chromium steel in mother liquor solutions.
