ASME SB111 C68700 Seamless Brass Tubes for Desalination of Seawater

C68700 is an aluminum brass alloy with arsenic addition, specifically designed for harsh environments such as seawater desalination. Its composition (Cu: 76-79%, Al: 1.8-2.5%, As: 0.02-0.06%, Zn: balance) ensures exceptional corrosion resistance in seawater and high thermal conductivity. The arsenic content further enhances resistance to dezincification, a critical feature for long-term durability in marine applications.

Primary Applications in Seawater Desalination​​

  1. ​​Heat Exchangers and Condensers​​

    • C68700 tubes are widely used in ​​multi-stage flash (MSF)​​ and ​​reverse osmosis (RO)​​ systems. Their high thermal conductivity (64 BTU·in/(hr·ft²·°F)) ensures efficient heat transfer between seawater and desalination equipment
    • The seamless structure eliminates weld seams, reducing leakage risks in high-pressure environments
  2. ​​Corrosion Resistance​​

    • The aluminum content forms a protective oxide layer, while arsenic prevents dezincification. This combination allows the tubes to withstand saltwater, chlorine, and sulfide exposure, even at high flow velocities
    • Example: In ​​seawater intake pipelines​​, C68700 resists pitting and crevice corrosion, extending equipment lifespan
  3. ​​Mechanical Performance​​

    • ​​Tensile Strength:​​ 345–600 MPa (minimum 345 MPa for annealed tubes)
    • ​​Yield Strength:​​ 125–540 MPa, suitable for high-pressure condensers and evaporators.
    • ​​Fatigue Resistance:​​ Maintains structural integrity under cyclic thermal and mechanical stresses.
