material-comparison - Question and answers

I'm working on this project where the heat exchanger will operate at around 150°C with circulating water, and I'm prioritizing corrosion resistance over other properties. I've already compared thermal conductivity and cost, but I'm unsure about specific corrosion mechanisms like pitting or stress cracking in these materials. Any insights or real-world examples would help me finalize my material choice.

I have some experience with textiles from previous projects, but I'm new to using synthetic fibres specifically for sportswear. I've tested basic fabrics, but I'm unsure about long-term durability and how each fibre handles sweat and repeated washing. My goal is to create clothing that lasts through intense workouts without losing functionality.
