Dept. of Transportation (DOT) Shipping Test Protocols: A liquid is considered to be corrosive if its corrosion rate exceeds 6.25 mmpy on Steel (SAE 1020 carbon steel) or Aluminum (7075-Y6) at a test temperature of 55C. ENVIROGEN has a corrosion rate of 0.64 mmpy on Mild Steel, and >6.25 mmpy on aluminum. Conclusion: Although ENVIROGEN has a corrosion rate of >6.25 mmpy on aluminum, it is still classified as a Non-Regulated material with regards to shipping over the rate. This is based on an exemption in the DOT protocols, Section 173.154 Exceptions for Class 8 (corrosive materials), Item (d) Materials corrosive to aluminium and steel only. Note: Unlike the original formula, our latest formulation with Cytagen allows for cleaning sensitive metals surfaces that were not originally suited to cleaning with the original formula. |
