Hydrocyanic acid Corrosion
Hydrocyanic acid Corrosion
(OP)
In what extent staninless steels (316L or 304) are affected by Hydrocyanic acid corrosion? Anticipating a value of above 20 ppmw of HCN, how good 316 or 204 materials can resist the attack at 70 Deg C and at 120 Deg C? Is there any good corrosion data available in any books? I could not find much data in ASM handbook. Please advise.

RE: Hydrocyanic acid Corrosion
Search for Prussic acid, you might have better luck.
Are there any other impurities? (Cl?)
If not then I would go with 304L.

It's much more damaging to people than to stainless steel..
