Maximum Acceptable Limit

[Shibuz]

I am interested in finding a table or some information on the maximum acceptable limit of certain chemicals before corrosion. Specifically, I am looking for the limit on H2S, CO2, DO, PH etc...before an alloy could start corroding. I work in a downhole pump manufacturing company, and I need this info almost on a day to day basis.
I appreciate the help.
Thanks.

I found a couple of web sites with corrosion info on them.

These pages have reference information to help choose a pipe material. I'm not sure if its what you are looking for, but I hope it helps.

Goto the NACE-International website

They have a handbook series that have thsi type of information in, that is a matrix with Base Materal, Concentration, Temperature and and corrosion rate. A great reference, but pricey.
