Results are reported of a study of the corrosion resistance of the stainless steels 12Kh19N10T, 10Kh17N13M3T, 08Kh17N15M3T, 10Kh21N6M2T, and 06KhI28MDT, cupronickel MNZhMts 30-1-1, nickel NP-2, and titanium alloys VT1-0, PT-1M, and PT-3V in a solution of lithium bromide for purposes of assessing these alloys for use in absorption-type refrigerating units using the bromide as an absorbent. The uniform corrosion rate was determined from the weight loss; the nonuniform corrosion rate was determined by measuring the maximum depth of the pits under a microscope. Results are comparatively evaluated.
