Abstract
Material compatibility is one of the significant issues concerning the application of biodiesel in IC engines. In this paper, the corrosive nature of acid oil biodiesel has been investigated as per ASTM G31 standard procedure. Three base materials, stainless steel, aluminum and copper, which were used to make different components of the fuel system, are selected for the investigation. The corrosion rates of these materials in acid oil biodiesel were determined and compared with petroleum-based diesel. From the static immersion test conducted, the corrosion rate of stainless steel, aluminium and copper was found to be 0.0018, 0.0104 and 0.1407 (mpy), respectively.
