Number of Hours that SAF2507 as per ASTM A790 Can Withstand
2005
I need to know for how many hours that this material can withstand salt spray test and with what Ph value or concentration.
material : 1-1/2 inch pipe SCH 40 Grade SAF 2507 ASTM A790 or equivalent UNS S32750 as per SA790

An iso-corrosion diagram, for corrosion rate 0.1 mm/year (4 mils/year) in sulfuric acid containing 2000 ppm chloride ions, for SAF 2507 is on Sandvik's website. At 35 C, sulfuric acid concentrations < 17 wt% give corrosion rates < 4 mils/year. Thus, piping with 0.145 inch thick walls might last 36 years or 315,000 hours. Lowering the acid concentration should allow a similar lifetime at higher chloride concentrations.
