Handling phosphoric acid และ phosphate fertilizer slurries is one of the toughest challenges in the chemical industry. These fluids are highly corrosive, often contain abrasive solids, and operate at elevated temperatures. Standard stainless steels like 304 or 316L fail rapidly. The proven solution? A CD4MCuN split case pump for phosphoric acid phosphate fertilizer applications.
Hunan Durafort Pumps Co., Ltd., a leading pump manufacturer in Hunan Province and South China, offers the ปั๊มแบบตัวเครื่องแยกส่วนแนวนอน ซีรีส์ XSP engineered with CD4MCuN (ASTM A890 Grade 1B) – a duplex stainless steel specifically developed for aggressive acidic and chloride-laden environments.

Why CD4MCuN (ASTM A890 Grade 1B) for Phosphoric Acid & Phosphate Fertilizer?
Phosphoric acid (H₃PO₄) – especially wet-process phosphoric acid used in fertilizer production – contains impurities like fluorides, chlorides, and sulfuric acid residues. These create an extremely corrosive environment with high pitting and crevice corrosion risk. CD4MCuN provides:

- Superior pitting resistance – far exceeding 316L and comparable to higher grades.
- Excellent resistance to phosphoric acid attack – proven in wet-process acid service.
- High mechanical strength – yield strength roughly twice that of 316L, allowing thinner walls and reduced weight.
- ความทนทานต่อการกัดกร่อนที่ดี – essential when handling gypsum-containing phosphate slurries.
- Cost-effective alternative – lower cost than high-nickel alloys or super duplex for many phosphoric acid applications.

Typical Applications of XSP Split Case Pump in CD4MCuN
The CD4MCuN split case pump for phosphoric acid phosphate fertilizer is ideal for:
- Phosphoric acid circulation – Wet-process plant (dihydrate or hemihydrate process)
- Phosphate fertilizer slurry – MAP (monoammonium phosphate), DAP (diammonium phosphate) transfer
- Filter feed and filtrate pumps – Phosphogypsum handling
- Acid cleaning loops – Recirculating dilute phosphoric acid
- Seawater cooling systems (where CD4MCuN also excels)
- Chemical processing – Acetic acid, dilute sulfuric acid, and other corrosive media
General Applications of XSP Split Case Pump (All Materials)
- Clean water / similar liquids – Municipal water supply, irrigation, circulation
- Corrosive media – Seawater, phosphoric acid, chemical raw materials
- High-temperature media – Up to 150°C
- Petroleum & chemical liquids
- Power plant cooling water – Thermal and nuclear stations
- District heating – Circulating systems
- Industrial water supply – Paper mills, steel mills, general manufacturing


CD4MCuN vs. Other Materials for Phosphoric Acid Service
| วัสดุ | PREN | Resistance to Wet-Process Phosphoric Acid | ค่าใช้จ่ายสัมพัทธ์ | Typical Life in Phosphoric Acid |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 316L | ~25 | Poor (pitting after weeks) | ต่ำ | Months |
| Duplex 2205 | ≥35 | ดี | ระดับกลาง | 1-2 years |
| CD4MCuN | ~30-35 | Very Good (specially formulated with Cu) | Medium-High | 2-4 years |
| Super Duplex 2507 | >40 | ยอดเยี่ยม | สูง | 4+ years |
| High-nickel alloys (Hastelloy) | >50 | Superior | Very High | 5+ years |
สำหรับ phosphoric acid and phosphate fertilizer plants, CD4MCuN offers the best balance of performance and cost – significantly longer life than 316L without the high price of super duplex or nickel alloys.
