Rail Tank Car shows minimal Coating Loss over 5 years in 93-98% Sulfuric Acid service with ChemLine®

Sulfuric acid is essential in many industries, including producing numerous compounds. It's primarily used to make phosphoric acid for fertilizer and produce inorganic chemicals, pharmaceuticals, soaps, detergents, textiles, and pulp and paper products. Despite its immense benefits, sulfuric acid poses significant risks for those trying to store and transport it.

Fortunately, a renowned transporter of 93-98%sulfuric acid has discovered a reliable means of transporting this compound without worry. The client expressed the need for a dependable tank lining solution for transporting both fresh and spent sulfuric acid. The Rail Manager at APC listened attentively and recommended ChemLINE® 784, a low-bake, highly chemical-resistant polymer coating system. With this innovative solution, transporting sulfuric acid has become a hassle-free undertaking. Following approval from APC's Lab Team, the company arranged for a Pilot Rail Tank Car to be coated with ChemLINE® 784.
