Hi,

I stumbled across this board surfing and it looked like a very interesting place.

I have a question about corrosion resistance of steel by HF acid. I work in the valve industry and repair many valves for alky units in refineries. I was wondering if cryo treatment of WCB steel would improve its corrosion resitance to HF?

Thanks for the help
