Chemical Resistance Guide for Valves and Fittin

INTRODUCTION

This chemical resistance guide has been compiled to assist the

piping system designer in selecting chemical resistant

materials. The information given is intended as a guide only. Many

conditions can affect the material choices. Careful

consideration must be given to temperature, pressure and chemi-

cal concentrations before a final material can be selected.Thermoplastics and elastomers physical characteristics are more

sensitive to temperature than metals. For this reason, a rating chart

has been developed for each.

MATERIAL RATINGS

FOR THERMOPLASTICS & ELASTOMERS

Temp. in F = A rating, maximum temperature which

is recommended, resistant under normal

conditions

B to Temp. in F = Conditional resistance, consult factory

C = Not recommended

Blank = No data available

MATERIAL RATINGS FOR METALS

A = Recommended, resistant under normal

conditions

B = Conditional, consult factory

C = Not recommended

Blank = No data available

Temperature maximums for thermoplastics, elastomers and met-

als should always fall within published temp/pressure ratings for

individual valves. THERMOPLASTICS ARE NOT RECOM-

MENDED FOR COMPRESSED AIR OR GAS SERVICE.

This guide considers the resistance of the total valve assembly as

well as the resistance of individual trim and fitting materials. The

rating assigned to the valve body plus trim combinations is al-

ways that of the least resistant part. In the cases where the valve

body is the least resistant, there may be conditions under which

the rate of corrosion is slow enough and the mass of the body

large enough to be usable for a period of time. Such use should

always be determined by test before installation of the compo-

nent in a piping system.

In the selection of a butterfly valve for use with a particular chemi-

cal, the liner, disc, and stem must be resistant. All three materials

should carry a rating of A. The body of a properly functioning

butterfly valve is isolated from the chemicals being handled and

need not carry the same rating.

THERMOPLASTICS & ELASTOMERS

ABS Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene Class 4-2-2 conforming

to ASTM D1788 is a time-proven material. The smooth inner sur-

face and superior resistance to deposit formation makes ABS drain,

waste, and vent material ideal for residential and commercial sani-

tary systems. The residential DWV system can be exposed in ser-

vice to a wide temperature span. ABS-DWV has proven satisfac-

tory for use from -40F to 180F. These temperature variations can

occur due to ambient temperature or the discharge of hot liquids

into the system. ABS-DWV is very resistant to a wide variety of

materials ranging from sewage to commercial household chemi-

cal formulations. ABS-DWV is joined by solvent cementing or

threading and can easily be connected to steel, copper, or cast

iron through the use of transition fittings.

CPVC Chlorinated Polyvinyl Chloride Class 23447-B, formerly

designated Type IV, Grade 1 conforming to ASTM D-1784, has

physical properties at 73F similar to those of PVC, and its chemi-cal resistance is similar to or generally better than that of PVC.

CPVC, with a design stress of 2000 psi and maximum service

temperature of 210F, has proven to be an excellent material for

hot corrosive liquids, hot or cold water distribution, and similar

applications above the temperature range of PVC. CPVC is joined

by solvent cementing, threading or flanging.

PP (Polypropylene) Type 1 Polypropylene is a polyolefin, which

is lightweight and generally high in chemical resistance.

Although Type 1 polypropylene conforming to ASTM D-2146 is

slightly lower in physical properties compared to PVC, it is chemi-

cally resistant to organic solvents as well as acids and alkalies.

Generally, polypropylene should not be used in contact with strong

oxidizing acids, chlorinated hydrocarbons, and aromatics. With adesign stress of 1000 psi at 73 F, polypropylene has gained wide

acceptance where its resistance to sulfur-bearing compounds is

particularly useful in salt water disposal lines, crude oil piping, and

low pressure gas gathering systems. Polypropylene has also

proved to be an excellent material for laboratory and industrial

drainage where mixtures of acids, bases, and solvents are involved.

Polypropylene is joined by the thermo-seal fusion process, thread-

ing or flanging. At 180F, or when threaded, PP should be used for

drainage only at a pressure not exceeding 20 psi.

PVC Polyvinyl Chloride Class 12454-B, formerly designated

Type 1, Grade 1. PVC is the most frequently specified of all ther-

moplastic materials. It has been used successfully for over 30 years

in such areas as chemical processing, industrial plating, chilled

water distribution, deionized water lines, chemical drainage, andirrigation systems. PVC is characterized by high physical proper-

ties and resistance to corrosion and chemical attack by acids,

alkalies, salt solutions, and many other chemicals. It is attacked,

however, by polar solvents such as ketones, some chlorinated

hydrocarbons and aromatics. The maximum service temperature

of PVC is 140F. With a design stress of 2000 psi, PVC has the

highest long-term hydrostatic strength at 73F of any of the major

thermoplastics being used for piping systems. PVC is joined by

solvent cementing, threading, or flanging.

PVDF (Polyvinylidene Fluoride) KEM-TEMP (KYNAR ) is a

strong, tough and abrasion-resistant fluorocarbon material. It re-

sists distortion and retains most of its strength to 280F. It is chemi-

cally resistant to most acids, bases, and organic solvents and is

ideally suited for handling wet or dry chlorine, bromine and otherhalogens. No other solid thermoplastic piping components can

approach the combination of strength, chemical resistance and

working temperatures of PVDF. PVDF is joined by the thermo-

seal fusion process, threading or flanging.

EPDM EPDM is a terpolymer elastomer made from ethylene-

propylene diene monomer. EPDM has good abrasion and tear re-

sistance and offers excellent chemical resistance to a variety of

acids and alkalines. It is susceptible to attack by oils and is not

recommended for applications involving petroleum oils, strong

Material Definitions

acids, or strong alkalines. It has exceptionally good weather ag-ing and ozone resistance. It is fairly good with ketones and alco-hols and has an excellent temperature range from -20F to 250F.

CHLOROSULFONATED POLYETHYLENE (CSM) Chloro-

sulfonated polyethylene has very good resistance to oxidation,ozone, and good flame resistance. It is similar to polychloropreneexcept with improved acid resistance where it will resist suchoxidizing acids as nitric, hydrofluoric, and sulfuric acid. Abrasion

resistance of chlorosulfonated polyethylene is excellent, aboutthe equivalent of nitriles. Oil and solvent resistance is somewhatbetween that of polychloroprene and nitrile. Salts have little ifany effect on chlorosulfonated polyethylene. Chlorosulfonatedpolyethylene is not recommended for exposure to concentratedoxidizing acids, esters, ketones, chlorinated, aromatic and nitrohydrocarbons. Chlorosulfonated polyethylene has a normal tem-perature range of -20F to 200F.

POLYCHLOROPRENE (CR) Polychloroprenes were one of

the first synthetic rubbers developed. Polychloroprene is an all-

purpose polymer with many desirable characteristics and fea-tures high resiliency with low compression set, flame resistance,and is animal and vegetable oil resistant. Polychloroprene isprincipally recommended for food and beverage service. Gener-ally, polychloroprene is not affected by moderate chemicals, fats,greases, andmany oils and solvents. Polychloroprene is attackedby strong oxidizing acids, most chlorinated solvents, esters, ke-tones, aromatic hydrocarbons, and hydraulic fluids. Polychloro-prene has a moderate temperature range of -20F to 160F.

NITRILE (NBR) (BUNA-N) is a general purpose oil-resistantpolymer known as nitrile rubber. Nitrile is a copolymer of buta-diene and acrylonitrile and has a moderate temperature rangeof 20F to 180F. Nitrile has good solvent, oil, water, and hydrau-lic fluid resistance. It displays good compression set, abrasionresistance and tensile strength. Nitrile should not be used inhighly polar solvents such as acetone and methyl ethyl ketone,nor should it be used in chlorinated hydrocarbons, ozone or nitro

hydrocarbons.FLUOROCARBON (FKM) Fluorocarbon elastomers are inher-ently compatible with a broad spectrum of chemicals. Because ofthis extensive chemical compatibility, which spans considerableconcentration and temperature ranges, fluorocarbon elastomershave gained wide acceptance as a material of construction forbutterfly valve o-rings and seats. Fluorocarbon elastomers can beused in most applications involvingmineral acids, salt solutions,chlorinated hydrocarbons, and petroleum oils. They are particu-larly good in hydrocarbon service. Fluorocarbon elastomers haveone of the broadest temperature ranges of any of the elastomers,-20F to 300F; however, they are not suited for steam service.

PTFE Polytetrafluoroethylene has outstanding resistance tochemical attack by most chemicals and solvents. PTFE has a

temperature rating of -20F to 400F in valve applications. PTFE,a self-lubricating compound, is used as a seat material in ballvalves.

PEEK (Polyetheretherketone) PEEK is a high-performanceengineered thermoplastic which can be used above the use-ful range of PTFE. PEEK has physical characteristics ap-proaching some metals (approximately 30K tensile) and hasexcellent resistance to a wide range of organic and inorganicchemicals. PEEK can be used up to 550F and is an excellent

choice for heat transfer fluids, steam and hydrocarbon services.

GRAPHITE Graphite is the packing and seal material of

choice for most fire-rated products, primarily because of itshigh temperature rating of approximately 2000F. Graph-ite has excellent chemical resistance, can retain compress-ibility at all temperatures and has a low coefficient of fric-tion. Graphite is not recommended for use in strong oxidizingatmospheres.

METALS USED IN VALVES & FITTINGS

ALUMINUM A non-ferrous metal, very lightweight, approxi-mately one-third as much as steel. Aluminum exhibits excellentatmospheric corrosion resistance, but can be very reactive withother metals. In valves, aluminum is mainly used as an exteriortrim component such as a handwheel or an identification tag.

COPPER Among the most important properties of wrot cop-

per materials are their thermal and electrical conductivity, corro-sion resistance, wear resistance, and ductility. Wrot copper per-forms well in high temperature applications and is easily joined bysoldering or brazing. Wrot copper is exclusively used for fittings.

BRONZE One of the first alloys developed in the bronze age

is generally accepted as the industry standard for pressure-ratebronze valves and fittings. Bronze has a higher strength than purecopper, is easily cast, has improved machinability, and is veryeasily joined by soldering or brazing. Bronze is very resistant topitting corrosion, with general resistance to most chemicals lessthan that of pure copper.

SILICONE BRONZE Has the ductility of copper but much

more strength. The corrosion resistance of silicon bronze is equalto or greater than that of copper. Commonly used as stemmate-rial in pressure-rated valves, silicon bronze has greater resistanceto stress corrosion cracking than common brasses.

ALUMINUM BRONZE Themost widely accepted disc materi-

al used in butterfly valves, aluminum bronze is heat treatable andhas the strength of steel. Formation of an aluminum oxide layer

on exposed surfaces makes this metal very corrosion resistant.Not recommended for high pH wet systems.

BRASS Generally good corrosion resistance. Susceptible tode-zincification in specific applications; excellent machinability.Primary uses for wrot brass are for ball valve stems and balls,and iron valve stems. A forginggrade of brass is used in ball valvebodies and end pieces.

GRAY IRON An alloy of iron, carbon and silicon; easily cast;good pressure tightness in the as-cast condition. Gray iron hasexcellent dampening properties and is easilymachined. It is stan-dard material for bodies and bonnets of Class 125 and 250 ironbody valves. Gray iron has corrosion resistance that is better thansteel in certain environments.

DUCTILE IRON Has composition similar to gray iron. Specialtreatment modifies metallurgical structure, which yields highermechanical properties; some grades are heat-treated to improveductility. Ductile iron has the strength properties of steel usingsimilar casting techniques to that of gray iron.

CARBON STEELVerygoodmechanical properties;good resis-tance to stress corrosion and sulfides. Carbon steel has high andlow temperature strength, is very tough and has excellent fatiguestrength. Mainly used in gate, globe, and check valves for appli-cations up to 850F, and in one-, two-, and three-piece ball valves.

3% NICKEL IRON Improved corrosion resistance over gray

and ductile iron. Higher temperature corrosion resistance and

mechanical properties. Very resistant to oxidizing atmospheres.

NICKEL-PLATED DUCTILE IRON Nickel coatings have re-

ceived wide acceptance for use in chemical processing. These

coatings have very high tensile strength, 50 to 225 ksi. To some

extent, the hardness of a material is indicative of its resistance to

abrasion and wear characteristics. Nickel plating is widely speci-

fied as a disc coating for butterfly valves.

400 SERIES STAINLESS STEEL An alloy of iron, carbon, and

chromium. This stainless is normally magnetic due to its marten-

sitic structure and iron content. 400 series stainless steel is resis-

tant to high temperature oxidation and has improved physical and

mechanical properties over carbon steel. Most 400 series stain-

less steels are heat-treatable. The most common applications in

valves are for stem material in butterfly valves and backseat bush-

ings and wedges in cast steel valves.

316 STAINLESS STEEL An alloy of iron, carbon, nickel, and

chromium. A nonmagnetic stainless steel with more ductility than

400SS. Austinetic in structure, 316 stainless steel has very good

corrosion resistance to a wide range of environments, is not sus-

ceptible to stress corrosion cracking and is not affected by heat

treatment. Most common uses in valves are stem, body and ball

materials.

17-4 PH STAINLESS STEEL Is a martensitic precipitation/

age hardening stainless steel, offering high strength and hardness.

17-4 PH withstands corrosive attack better than any of the 400

series stainless steels, and in most conditions its corrosion resis-

tance closely approaches that of 300 series stainless steel. 17-4

PH is primarily used as a stem material for butterfly and ball valves.

chromium than 300 series stainless steel and with the addition

of columbium, this alloy retards stress corrosion cracking and

has improved resistance to sulfuric acid. Alloy 20 finds wide use

in all phases of chemical processing. Commonly used as interio

trim on butterfly valves.

MONEL Is a nickel-copper alloy used primarily as interio

trim on butterfly and ball valves. One of the most specified mate

rials for corrosion resistance to sea and salt water. Monel is also

very resistant to strong caustic solutions.

STELLITE Cobalt base alloy, one of the best all-purpose

hard facing alloys. Very resistant to heat, abrasion, corrosion

impact, galling, oxidation, thermal shock and erosion. Stellite

takes a high polish and is used in steel valve seat rings

Normally applied with transfer plasma-arc; Stellite hardness is

not affected by heat treatment.

HASTELLOY C A high nickel-chromium molybdenum alloy

which has outstanding resistance to a wide variety of chemica

process environments, including strong oxidizers such as we

chlorine, chlorine gas, and ferric chloride. Hastelloy C is also re

sistant to nitric, hydrochloric, and sulfuric acids at moderate tem

peratures.
