The tremendous growth of the CPI continues to highlight nee for improved service from materials used

in industrial piping and related equipment. Optimun material selection in piping-system desing for
corrosive environments can present very complex problems involving both (|) behavior corrosion
theory.

No single, economical, corrosion-resistant material suits all conditions a detailed, accurate profile of the
operating environment. The data should encompass temperature ranges, pressure levels, and
information on process variables, such as composition and concentration of reactants, chemical
additives, occurrence of condensation or vaporization, etc.
