Heat treatment :
SD 2507Cu is delivered in the solution annealed and water quenched conditions
(1080/1120°C - 1976/2018°F). The chemical analysis and heat treatment are
optimised in order to reach a 50% / 50% microstructure.
CORROSION General corrosion
RESISTANCE
SD 2507Cu performs particularly well in sulphuric and phosphoric acid solutions,
even in presence of chlorides. The duplex microstructure which provides high
mechanical properties explains why the alloy behaves particularly well in abrasion-
corrosion conditions (agitators, screws, rakes...).
Mixed acids are often associated with chlorides and in pollution control
equipments. Due to high chromium, molybdenum and copper additions, SD 2507Cu
behaves well in scrubber systems. In Pulp and Paper industries, SD 2507Cu is
used in the most severe conditions encountered for example in digester (resistant
to hot wall problems), chips presteaming vessels or in some bleaching equipments.
