The characteristics of stainless steel

Image
There are various types of stainless steel depending on the ratio of alloys and the heat treatment applied, and they are roughly divided into three types: martensitic, ferrite, and austenitic. Martensitic Martensite structure is formed by heat treatment (quenching), and   Stainless Steel 304 Pipe    is made from it. Compared to others, it is inferior in corrosion resistance due to its low carbon content. Due to these properties, it is often used for products that require strength and hardness and products exposed to high temperatures. Specifically, it is often used for blades, nozzles, turbine blades, brake discs, etc. The main martensitic stainless steels are SUS410 and SUS403. Ferritic It is a chrome-based stainless steel containing nickel and is resistant to corrosion in high-temperature environments against gases containing sulfur. It has the characteristics of not causing stress cracking due to chloride, which is a drawback of austenitic stainless steel. On the other...

The many unique advantages of stainless steel make it a strong candidate in the choice of materials. These qualities are often ignored or misunderstood by engineers, specifiers and designers because of what is perceived as the higher initial cost of stainless steel. But stainless is always the best value choice over the entire life of a project.   Stainless steel is low carbon steel containing 10 per cent or more of chromium by weight. It is the addition of chromium that gives the steel its special properties which are stainless and resistant to corrosion. The steel's chromium content allows a durable, adherent, transparent, corrosion resistant chromium oxide film to be formed on the steel surface. This film is self-healing if harmed mechanically or chemically, provided oxygen is present, even in very small quantities. Increased chromium content and addition of other elements such as molybdenum, nickel and nitrogen improve the corrosion resistance and other useful properties of the...
