Copper line to transport acetic acid

(OP)
Please i would like to know if using copper line/pipe to handle (5%)acetic acid would be okay and if increasing the flow rate of acetic acid could lead to higher corrosion or not. And what alternative do i go for if its not wise to use the copper?Please someone kindly help. Thank you
