The resistance to corrosion is a function of several parameters such as the chemical concentration, temperature, mechanical constraints, environment, etc. The following indications are the result of Milton Roy Europe’s experience and should be compared with the users personal experience. Due to the complexity of corrosive phenomena, and the particular situation depending on chemical composition,
