The document discusses materials used in food plant construction. It describes that ideal materials should be resistant to corrosion from foods and cleaning agents, have suitable surface finishes to prevent dirt buildup, and good mechanical properties. Stainless steel is commonly used due to its corrosion resistance, with specific grades like 304 being popular. Aluminum has good thermal conductivity but needs protection under some conditions. Plastics like polypropylene and epoxy resins are also utilized in food plant construction.

• Resistance to corrosive action of foods or
chemicals (cleaning and sanitation agents) • Suitable surface finish to discourage buildup of dirt • Good mechanical behavior Material yang tidak kontak lansung dengan makanan dan bahan pencuci Rigidity, mechanical strength Stainless steel • Byk digunakan terutama untuk desain yg kontak langsung dengan makanan • AISI 304 AISI 302 exhibits better corrosion resistance than AISI 301, and is the most commonly used. AISI 304 is more corrosion resistant than AISI 302, but less so than AISI 316. Of all the stainless steel types, AISI 316 exhibits the best corrosion resistance to chemical agents. Surface finish (American Iron Steel Institute)
Unpolished Surface Polished Surface
• No. 1 finish. For industrial • No. 3 finish. For surfaces further applications when heat or polished with more intensity. corrosion resistance is needed • No. 4 finish. For surface finishes without surface polishing commonly used on restoration equipment, in dairy industry, and requirements. food industry general. • No. 2D finish. For surfaces that • No. 6 finish. For decorative element. must be polished after • No. 7 finish. A Mirror finish, mainly construction and equipment for surface in architecture but for assembly. food equipment, pumps and valves • No. 2B finish. For surfaces easier • No. 8 finish. A more intense mirror to polish than those requiring finish No.1 and No. 2D (Figure 7.1). Corrosion in stainless steel • General Corrosion • Intergranural Corrosion • Galvanic Corrosion • Corrosion Forming Spots • Stress Corrosion • The corrosion resistance of stainless steel is due to the spontaneous formation of a layer of chromium oxide on the surface of material • Deposits of foreign material on surface can help form corrosion. • Temperature, pH, abrrasiveness,flow velocity and contact duration. • Product containing vinegar and salt is the most corrosive. • Maintenance of brine pH between 7,5 – 8,0 Aluminum • High thermal conductivity around 217 W/m.K atau 187 kcal/h.m.oC. Densitas 2700 kg/m3 • It is corrosion resistance under normal conditions (distilation of water, fruit juice, milk and SO2) • Used in the construction of some parts of food process equipment Nickel and Monel • Widely used before stainless steel proved to be satisfactory material • Nickel for milk pasteurization and jacketed vessel but sensitive to sulfur products • Monel in ice cream processing, salt processing system, pumps that handle alcohol, brines, vegetals oils and fruit juice • Copper and bronze used in beer, alcohol, calcium brines, ketchup, citric acid, fatty acid and vegetals oil, distillate water, wine, whisky. Plastic Material • Polypropilene • High density polypropilene • Rigid PVC • Polyester • Epoxy resins
