FOREWORD This NACE International technical committee report presents general information on materials commonly used for storing and handling commercial grades of aqueous hydrofluoric acid (AqHF) and anhydrous hydrogen fluoride (AHF). Some materials gener

11、ally avoided are also discussed. This report is intended for end users, designers, and suppliers of equipment for use with AqHF and AHF. These include, among others, workers in process industry plants, engineering and construction designers, and suppliers of equipment such as pumps, valves, and hose

12、s. This information is useful for initial design and for cost estimates of equipment to handle most commercial AqHF and AHF. The report addresses AqHF and AHF purchased to normal commercial quality that do not contain impurities liable to affect their inherent corrosion characteristics. Testing in t

13、he service environment typically indicates a materials suitability for use with AqHF and AHF. This report does not include all materials that might be resistant and is not intended to limit the consideration and testing of other materials. The chemical symbol for hydrogen fluoride is HF. Throughout

14、this report, the term “HF” is used to mean the presence of hydrogen fluoride in any form or as a component in any stream. The term “AqHF” is used to mean a solution of some percentage of HF dissolved in water. If a percentage designation is associated with the term “AqHF,” it denotes the weight perc

15、entage concentration of HF in the water (aqueous) solution. The term “AHF” is used to mean a commercial grade of anhydrous HF as a liquefied gas with only specification levels of water present. The term “HF service” is used to mean AqHF and AHF services. It is recognized that both AqHF and AHF somet

16、imes exist in streams with organics or other materials present, which would change the apparent concentrations but have only small effects on the corrosiveness of the HF. In these cases, the context provides an understanding of the resulting effects. In this report, concentrations of solutions or al

17、loy compositions are understood to be weight percentages unless otherwise indicated. _ * Chair Herbert Jennings, DuPont Fluoroproducts, La Porte, TX.

27、nal 4 INTRODUCTION AqHF is commercially available in 49% and 70% solutions. Commercial AHF contains less than 400 parts per million by weight (ppmw) water. Although this report is intended as a guide for handling commercial grades of AqHF and AHF, additional information is given to aid users of AqHF

28、 and AHF who encounter other concentrations. It is assumed that purchased AqHF or AHF is received and stored at ambient temperature. When temperatures are not indicated, the data are considered valid for ambient temperatures with only intermittent service up to 49C (120F). When temperatures are indi

29、cated, the data are considered valid for long-term service up to that temperature. Corrosion rates at temperatures greater thanthose indicated sometimes are so high that service life is not economical or product contamination might be great. For critical design situations, more specific information

30、is obtained from producers of AqHF and AHF, materials manufacturers and suppliers, equipment fabricators, and process licensors. HF alkylation unit users can refer to API(1)RP 7511and Dobis et al.2Additional resource materials are listed in the Reference and Bibliography sections. Metals and alloys

31、mentioned in the text, tables, and figures are presented with their UNS(2)numbers in Appendix A. Where possible, UNS numbers are used throughout this report. SAFETY AqHF, AHF, and their vapors are extremely hazardous and sometimes cause painful burns and fatal edema of the lungs. The burns sometimes

32、 are not immediately painful or visible. Early treatment is generally advised. The National Institute of Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH)(3)recommended exposure limit for HF is 3 parts per million (ppm) time weighted average (TWA) (8 h) with a maximum of 6 ppm (15 min).3Personal protective equ

33、ipment, convenient showers and eye wash stations, and first aid supplies specific to HF exposure are typical safety preparations emphasized by HF manufacturers to be available at user sites. Self-contained breathing apparatus are normally available in case of HF leaks. Packing materials, insulation,

34、 gaskets, and pump seals absorb HF and are difficult to decontaminate. Any materials contaminated with HF are generally treated as hazardous. Corrosion products and other reaction products of HF are potentially hazardous, even when apparently dry. Personal safety measures and first aid are covered i

35、n “Medical Management Guidelines for Acute Chemical Exposures,”4in HF manufacturers bulletins, and in Material Safety Data Sheets. MATERIALS COMMONLY USED HF Manufacture Both experience and laboratory research5have shown that nickel (Ni)-based alloys containing chromium (Cr), molybdenum (Mo), and co

36、pper (Cu) have the greatest corrosion resistance to mixtures of concentrated sulfuric acid and HF commonly found in HF manufacture. Alloys in this class include UNS N06030, N06985, N08007, N08020, and N08825. UNS N10276 and N26455 have been used for premixing equipment and as a lining in reactor she

37、lls. Some HF manufacturers have reactors and kilns made of carbon steel. Carbon steel is used primarily for AHFprocess and storage equipment at temperatures less than 66C (150F). Storing and Handling Materials in Table 1 are commonly used for storing and handling commercial grades of AqHF and AHF, w

38、hich implies the AqHF and AHF are at ambient temperature, are low in oxygen or other contaminants, and are in no-flow or low-flow conditions. Ambient temperatures sometimes vary widely and affect the rate of corrosion or attack on materials. Therefore, the information in Table 1 is intended for use
