Download PDF (opens in new tab)

This paper reviews the galvanic compatibility of Hiduron® 220 with stainless steels Alloy 316 and 416, together with Ferralium® SD40, demonstrating its suitability for applications such as sheathing and fittings in marine environments.

A variety of techniques are used, including laboratory electrochemical testing and long-term exposure.
