One minute to introduce you to acid and alkali resistant conveyor belts

Application of acid and alkali resistant conveyor belt​:

HIHERO are exported all over the world and different industries with quality first. Our belief is to provide our customers with more and better high value-added products. Let's create a better future together.

Acid and alkali resistant conveyor belts are designed specifically for conveying materials in corrosive environments such as strong acids and alkalis, with excellent corrosion resistance and wear resistance. Widely used in industries such as chemical engineering, metallurgy, electroplating, and wastewater treatment.

Characteristics of acid and alkali resistant conveyor belt:

Excellent corrosion resistance: can be used for a long time in acidic and alkaline environments with pH values ranging from 2 to 14.

Good wear resistance: The covering adhesive is wear-resistant and extends its service life.

Tensile strength: The high-strength skeleton material ensures that the conveyor belt is not easily deformed under heavy loads.

Excellent temperature resistance: Suitable for temperatures ranging from -10 ° C to 120 ° C.

Application fields of acid and alkali resistant conveyor belts:

Chemical industry: transporting corrosive chemicals such as acids, alkalis, salts, etc.

Metallurgical industry: transporting corrosive materials such as ores and slag.

Electroplating industry: transporting electroplating solution, pickling solution, etc.

Wastewater treatment: transporting sludge and wastewater containing acid and alkali.

Chemical Resistant Conveyor Belts for Acidic and Corrosive Use

Chemical Resistant Conveyor Belts: Engineered for Harsh, Corrosive Environments

Why Chemical-Resistant Belts Matter

In industries where materials such as acids, alkalis, solvents, salts, fertilizers, or waste sludge are handled, chemical attack can quickly degrade standard rubber conveyor belts—causing surface cracking, layer separation, and premature failure.

A chemical-resistant conveyor belt is specifically formulated with non-reactive rubber compounds and specialized cover layers that withstand continuous exposure to corrosive substances—without losing structural integrity or flexibility.

Key Features of Chemical-Resistant Belts

  • Acid and Alkali Resistance
    Protective cover compounds resist HCl, H₂SO₄, NaOH, NH₃, and other corrosives, minimizing swelling and erosion.

  • Anti-Penetration Structure
    Dense rubber cover prevents chemical absorption and keeps fluids from seeping into fabric plies or steel cords.

  • Thermal-Chemical Stability
    Maintains performance in environments combining heat + chemical vapors (50°C–120°C ranges).

  • Flexible Design Options
    Available in EP fabric, NN fabric, or steel cord carcass depending on load and layout.

  • Optional Fire Retardancy
    For environments such as chemical recycling or waste processing where heat + chemicals coexist.

Common Applications for Chemical-Resistant Belts

These belts are widely used in industries where leaching, spraying, or exposure to reactive materials occurs during conveying:

Chemical Manufacturing Plants

  • Handling of powders, granules, and chemical raw materials

  • Exposure to sulfuric acid, caustic soda, and chlorides during dosing and batching

Fertilizer Production Lines

  • Transport of phosphate, potash, urea, ammonium nitrate—especially under high humidity or dust

  • Belt cleaning systems must handle acidic water spray and abrasive residues

Wastewater Treatment Facilities

  • Sludge belt press output, lime dosing, flocculant dosing areas

  • Belts exposed to low-pH or high-pH filtrates and gasified chemicals

Battery and Electronics Recycling

  • Conveying lithium batteries, plastics with heavy metals, acid-soaked fragments

  • Belt must resist chemical attack + withstand sharp metal content

Laboratory and Pharmaceutical

  • Cleanroom conveyor systems for chemically reactive processes

  • Non-staining, anti-absorption covers required

What Materials Are Used?

Sinoconve’s chemical-resistant belts use specialized rubber cover formulations based on:

The choice of cover compound, fabric carcass, and cleat/sidewall bonding depends on the system layout and chemical exposure level.

Key Selection Criteria

When specifying a chemical-resistant conveyor belt, consider the following:
