3. Includes options for exporting data and integrating it into various process simulators.
4. Enables easy utilization of own data.
5. Offers a uniform database for the entire company.

DECHEMA Materials Table

The DECHEMA Materials Table contains specifications on the corrosion and chemical resistance of materials (metallic, non-metallic, inorganic as well as organic materials) and material recommendations of all industry-relevant materials present in more than 1,000 corrosive media.

The DECHEMA Materials Table provides answers to the following questions:

1. Does information already exist on the behaviour of the desired material in specific media?
2. Which materials are out of the question for the given task, and which can be used without hesitation?
3. Under which conditions could a cheaper but less resistant material be used?
4. Which material has the most favourable price-performance ratio under the given conditions?
5. Which protective measures (inhibitors, coatings, cathodic protection, etc.) are suitable?
