Livestock farm domestic water tank

Compared with water tanks made of other materials, domestic water tanks in breeding farms have many advantages, such as beautiful appearance, light weight, high strength, corrosion resistance, high temperature resistance, clean water quality, anti-seepage and earthquake resistance, no moss growth, no secondary pollution of water quality, convenient installation, no need for maintenance, and easy cleaning.

When brown rust spots or other corrosion points appear on the stainless steel surface of the domestic water tank, some customers may wonder if there is a problem with the steel.

In fact, this is a one-sided misconception about the lack of understanding of stainless steel. Stainless steel can also rust under certain conditions. In fact, stainless steel has the ability to resist atmospheric oxidation and also has extremely strong corrosion resistance. But its corrosion resistance varies with the chemical composition, mutual conditions, usage conditions, and environmental medium type of the steel itself. Materials such as 304 or 308 have excellent corrosion resistance in dry and clean air, but when moved to coastal areas, they will quickly rust in sea fog containing a lot of salt. Therefore, not all types of stainless steel are generally corrosion-resistant and rust free.

　　stainless steel water tankStainless steel is made up of a thin, strong, and dense layer of stable chrome plated oxide film (protective film) on its surface, which prevents oxygen atoms from continuously infiltrating and oxidizing, thus achieving corrosion resistance. If for some reason, this thin film is constantly damaged, and oxygen atoms in air or liquid will continuously infiltrate or iron atoms in the metal will continuously separate, forming loose iron oxide, and the metal surface will also be continuously corroded.
