Kynar & Sulfuric Acid Problems 2

[BusyDave]

We have been hearing that Kynar does not hold up well to 93% sulfuric acid but is fine for lesser concentrations. Does anyone have any experience with using Kynar for Sulfuric Acid in such concentrations? Will the piping fall apart?

I tried using Kynar Pumps for 93% sulfuric acid and it was a disaster. As for piping i dont know but I would recomend you research this very carefully before installing any Kynar materials on your Acid piping/pumping system.

Attached you will find the link of Georg+Fischer, they produce plastic Piping, I think you will get the information (chemical resistances) that you need there.

Most industrial users use plain carbon steel for commercial grade sulfuric acid, if that is what you are handling.
