Because there has been a gradual extension to industries other than the power generation industry of the use of cupronickel alloys containing 10 to 30 percent nickel the author considers it pertinent to provide information on their resistance to corrosives other than cooling waters. This is needed because the alloys’ use in heat exchanger tubes in applications where one side is exposed to various corrosives at high temperatures makes their reaction to the product side corrosive as significant as the attack on the water side.
