Hi guys,

now I confront materials selection issue. We storage raw material in tank,(attacment is the raw materials data) and material of construction for the tank is SA516 70 & SA537 CL1. Now we are going to purchase new vendor raw materials, but the water content up to 50ppm and Olefins is about 0.5%. I am just wondering whether this change will increase corrosion rate? or could you please provide the corrosion curve or data?
Thank you so much!
