which material is good with ferric chloride?
(OP)
Hi,
we are designing some piping and tubing for WWTP. We will use ferric chloride at 5% and 35%. We will normally use PVC piping but at 5% it may contact some metals.what kind of metal should we use? I kinda researched it and only titanium looks corrosive resistant to ferric chloride but we dont wanna go there. Do u think just 5% would effect cast iron or stainless steel so bad? Any other ideas.
Thanks a lot. Oh also for plastic piping, anything better than PVC. solution will be about room temp.all the time \.also for gaskets what kind of rubber?
thanks a lot again...

PS 5% FeCl3 will pretty much destroy cast iron and stainless.

Rubber lined MS (rubber can be natural or butyl)
PVC-U with FRp reinforcement for strength
GRP with vinyl esters

A two component epoxy flooring overlayment and coating system has worked pretty well for our facilities and users of this product. One supplier of such a coating is Petra Industrial Polymers (ht
