GUIDE TO MATERIAL SELECTION (CONTINUED)

PLATINUMUsed as the diaphragm material for special applications such as the fluoric chemical industry.

TANTALUMThe excellent corrosion resistance of tantalum closely equals that of glass and platinum. At room temperature it performs well with most organic and inorganic substances. Tantalum resists chemical attack by virtue of a firmly adhering surface layer of tantalum pentoxide. This layer, however, disintegrates at temperatures exceeding 300 OC. This will causeembrittlement of the material. Embrittlement will also occur if atomic hydrogen is able to penetrate. This can be avoided by a very thin platinum coating (0,5µm).

TITANIUMThe corrosion resistance of titanium is predominantly due to a passive surface of film of oxides. Titanium resists strong oxidising media, also in presence of free chlorine ions.

However, resistance against chlorine is only provided, if a water content of no less than 0.5% is maintained. Titanium alloys containing palladium are also suitable with non-oxidisingacidous media.

ZIRCONIUMCorrosion resistance of zirconium is very similar to titanium.

PTFE = Polytetrafluor EthyleneInternationally used abbreviation for the highly resistant plastic materials commonly known by the registered brand names of their respective manufacturers, such as Teflon, Hostaflon TF,Algoflon, Fluon, Soreflon, Polyflon and others. PTFE resists almost any chemical substance and is only attacked by liquid sodium and fluoride compounds at high pressure. WIKA PTFEdiaphragms are not porous but chemicals such as Chlorine, Bromine, HCL, and Vinyl canpenetrate into the PTFE and under certain process conditions (i.e. quick change of staticpressure) the lined diaphragm will be separated from the metallic diaphragm behind it,causing the seal not to work correctly. If in doubt a metallic diaphragm should be used.
