Semi-austenitic, easily welded material with an increased strength and a good general resistance to corrosion. Due to its good welding properties and wear resistance it is frequently used for jacketed pumps for handling melts containing solids, such as pitch and tar.
Duplex (semi-austenitic), molybdenum and copper alloyed material with a high resistance to pitting and stress corrosion. This material is one of the super duplex steels. lt can be used with crude phosphoric acid, containing solids at up to 100 °C, hot sea water, many solutions containing chloride, FGD suspensions and sulphuric acid at all concentrations at low temperatures.
Fully austenitic special stainless steel with a high chromium and nickel content. High resistance to pitting, stress corrosion and intercrystalline corrosion. Suitable for 70% caustic soda up to 200 °C, sulphuric acid at all concentrations at low and medium temperatures, sulphuric acid pickling solutions, in certain areas of the manufacture of phosphoric acid, for pumping solutions with a high chloride content and in spin baths.
High-quality, fully austenitic cast material with high resistance in chloride-rich, acidic and solid media. Use in REA absorber and quencher liquids, for acidic and chloride-containing gypsum sludge, in phosphoric acid production, in evaporation and crystallization processes as well as in hot sea water.
Higher austenitic cast material with very high corrosion resistance. Especially in very corrosive phosphoric acid with solids this material is perfectly suitable.
Highly corrosion resistant chromium alloy silicon cast iron with a good resistance to wear and increased chemical resistance. This material is chemically resistant to H2SO4 at all concentrations up to boiling point, therefore for all sulphuric acid applications including the evaporation of waste sulphuric acid, Siguss is virtually indispensable.
Highly resistant nickel-base alloy for special applications such as liquids containing high chloride, hydrochloric acid, FGD liquids, very heavily contaminated phosphoric acid, hypochlorites and solutions with oxidising chlorides.
Highly resistant nickel-base alloy for special applications such as liquids containing high chloride, hydrochloric acid, FGD liquids, very heavily contaminated phosphoric acid, hypochlorites and solutions with oxidising chlorides.
