Corrosion Resistance:
Hastelloy C-276 is noted for its exceptional resistance to attack by strong oxidizing agents including cupric and ferric chlorides, chlorine, formic and acetic acids, acetic anhydride and brine solutions. It also resists the corrosive effects of hypochlorite, chlorine dioxide solutions and wet chlorine gas. Hastelloy 'D' is best known for its resistance to sulphuric acid at all concentrations and temperatures- even at boiling point, and also resists other corrosives including organic acids and acid salts.
