PEEK, PTFE & PVDF are all high temp, corrosion resistant polymers each with their own niche capabilities https://t.co/4ME5ZeiBjr

For strength >120ksi, age hardened alloys like A286 and 17-4PH provide strength and ductility https://t.co/o54eDSB2Hg

Titanium is often used in situations like this to provide bolt strength and lightness of weight as it is 4x stronger than 316 at 1/2 the weight.

Both #PEEK polymer & #Alumina ceramics provide excellent electric insulation - choice depends on other traits like yield and temperature https://t.co/eMxLe6S3Ox

#Ceramics like #zirconia are excellent electric insulators, but #polymers like #PEEK can be better in that they are not as brittle and offer yield strength that ceramics do not. https://t.co/lrGowrMBUK

#Hydrofluoric is one of the most corrosive acids. #Monel is one of few alloys that is resistant https://t.co/hT8POmJ3e6

Swam with a grouper bigger than me there on vaca 1998! But to get there you need materials like #titanium to protect boats from salt water corrosion - in rough & stagnant water. https://t.co/jZIwFwcbKF
Explorers have reached the bottom of the Great Blue Hole. The team mapped out the depths of the 407-foot-deep hole using sound waves and found new mineral icicles, dead mollusks and plastic bottles. Rewatch "Into the Blue Hole" on @Discovery

Oil&Gas often look to #Incoloy to prevent sour gas #corrosion; #DuplexSteel in salt water/brine conditions. https://t.co/LRQzyDKyfu
In August of 2000, the 30-inch diameter El Paso Natural Gas Company #pipeline exploded in New Mexico resulting in 12 deaths and millions of dollars in damages. Proper corrosion protection and inspection could have prevented this disaster. https://t.co/VlEbheuYLQ

Home from #disneycruise ...every day they paint the boats...WHY? #Corrosion! Materials like #monel & #titanium prevent seawater corrosion & keep Mickey's boats running! https://t.co/eGOXXyMb6u

If there was an "survival of the fittest alloy" Darwin would chose #Hastelloy - resistant to #HCl and #H2SO4 and strong to 1500F #DarwinDay

#Inconel 600 will actually retain its strength at high temperatures of 2000F better than either #Alloy 330 or 310SS can https://t.co/GYWUVLZp7N

When it comes to oxidizing chemicals, #Hastelloy #C22 offer better resistance than sister #alloy C276 due to its higher chromium content. https://t.co/BBYBrbI9jv

#Alloy 330 is often used in furnace applications for its ability to handle cyclic temperatures swings, with a max usable temp of 2100°F https://t.co/yzsEcfBfIB
We use our heat treating furnace as part of our manufacturing process. #CorrosionMaterials Let us quote you on your next project! https://t.co/DtH1y12cGI

#Ceramics like Alumina are practically inert to high concentration #acid #corrosion, and are usable to 3000F but lack in strength - with 0 yield https://t.co/SM2c1psLkr

Super #Duplex #steel provides resistant to chlorides and high strength (82ksi yield) that is key to #chloride #bleaching processes https://t.co/SoG3HWsn0y
