BACKGROUNDBACKGROUNDBACKGROUNDBACKGROUND
• Early focus for SASFT – Corrosion Durability
• Major Corrosion Studies conducted 2002-2004
– 10 different steel tank systems
– External Corrosion– Salt Spray tests (ASTM B117)
– Cyclic Corrosion tests (SAE J2334)
w w w . s a s f t . o r g w w w . a u t o s t e e l . o r g
Some corrosion occurred in some steels,
But no perforation in any steel.
– Internal Corrosion (Fuel)– CE10A/45 C/39weeks
No corrosion (staining only)
No pitting
• Concluded: Steel systems meet 15-year (150,000 miles) requirement of CARB

CONCLUSIONSCONCLUSIONSCONCLUSIONSCONCLUSIONS
26-week exposure tests of 10 different steel systems in 3 aggressive alcohol fuels at 60°C has shown:
� No corrosion for 8 steel systems / all fuels
���� Light corrosion in CE22A for:─ Hot-dip Aluminized steel
w w w . s a s f t . o r g w w w . a u t o s t e e l . o r g
���� Light to moderate corrosion in CE85A for:
─ Hot-dip Aluminized steel
─ Terne steel (control)
���� No visual indication of contamination of fuels─ Supported by zero weight loss
Results demonstrate the corrosion durability of
most steel systems in aggressive ethanol fuels.
