Very good resistance to seawater and to brackish and industrial waters. Excellent resistant to flowing contaminated seawater (flow velocities from 1 to 4.5 m/s). good resistance to erosion, cavitation and stress corrosion cracking. Typical applications Seawater piping systems on ships as well as on offshore oil and gas production platforms . seawater intake pipes into desalination plants, coastal power stations and refineries. Condensers and heat exchangers in power stations, refineries and seawater desalination plants. Cunifer 10 is alos user for the sheating of oil and gas production platform columns in the splash zone.
