Selection of mateiral 

The parameters of operation like working temperature, pressure system application etc. have to be provided by the process designers, consultants and operation personnel. Arriving at a suitable material of performance needs to be thoroughly evaluated with the available data in literature of corrosion resistant charts. Some ways of combination are given below:

  • FRP (Plain) with impregnation of various types of polyester resins (Isopthalic, Bisphenol, Vinyl ester, Epoxy and others)
  • Dual composites like PP+FRP, PVC+FRP, PVDF+FRP, etc.
