An abrasive liquid is one that has particles in it. Some, like inks, have very fine
particles, while others, like some paints, contain much larger particles. Handling
abrasive liquids is a difficult application for any pump, because the abrasive particles promote pump wear. Likewise, corrosive liquids, by nature, directly attack the pump materials. The strength of a corrosive liquid depends on its concentration and temperature.
