Chemical/Material Compatibility Assessments

Process Advisory Services is experienced in the assessment of chemical species and complex mixtures for compatibility with materials of construction for storage tank systems, rotating equipment, processing facilities, and instrumentation.  PAS expertise covers metals, polymers, ceramics, and includes material compatibility assessments in reacting systems.

Where specific information does not exist for designated chemical/material pairings, PAS can recommend appropriate laboratory procedures (using ASTM-standard testing protocol) to quickly determine both short and long-term compatibility.  Where compatibility cannot be established, alternative materials of construction can be recommended.
