Chemical Compatibility

(OP)
Hello,

Does anybody know if following materials are chemically compatible with Hexene CH3(CH2)3CH=CH2 in the temperature range of 40°C to 200°C.

(1) Titanium (ASTM B348 gr 2)
(2) ASTM A351 gr CF3M
(3) Inconel 718 rings(with nickel coating)

I have not been able to get this medium in chemical compatibility charts.

Thank you,

Pras

Most metals are compatible with simple alkanes and alkenes, including titanium and nickel.  I would imagine iron-based alloys would be as well, but I'll let someone more expert than me (are you out there mcguire?) confirm that.

RE: Chemical Compatibility

TVP is correct. Each of these alloys is completely safe from corrosion in hexene at these temperatures. You get your mileage out of Eng-tips.com, Pras. Glad to help.

TVP / Mcguire,

Thanks for your reply. Would you please let me know if Chemical Compatibility charts for different materials are available on internet.

Thanks in advance.

I assume you want a free site. The best I have found is the web site,  Avesta-Polarit.com.
