In our daily use, stainless steel heat exchange tubes often rust, so why? What factors caused it? Although the material of the stainless steel heat exchange tube is a material that is not easy to rust, this does not mean that it will not rust.
Generally, there are many factors that cause stainless steel heat exchange tubes to rust, let’s talk about the most important ones.
Chloride ions exist in the environment where stainless steel heat exchange tubes are used. This is very easy to cause the heat exchange tube to rust.
Chloride ions exist in a wide range, such as common salt, sweat stains, sea water, sea breeze, soil, etc., all have chloride ions.
Chloride ions can accelerate the corrosion of stainless steel heat exchange tubes, even faster than ordinary low carbon steel.
Therefore, we should wipe the stainless steel heat exchange tube frequently in daily use to remove dust, clean it regularly, and keep it hygienic and dry.
