Where x is the material type (only 1 is specified so far), yy is the steel group number (specified in EN10027-2) and zz(zz) is a sequential number designated by the certifying body, the number in brackets being unused but reserved for later use. The steel groups are indicated below:
Microstructures of four kinds of duplex stainless steel in each direction. Duplex stainless steels are usually divided into three groups based on their pitting corrosion resistance, characterised by the pitting resistance equivalence number, PREN = %Cr + 3.3 %Mo + 16 %N.
The Japanese equivalent grade of this material is SUS304. Type 304L—same as the 304 grade but lower carbon content to increase weldability. Is slightly weaker than 304. Type 304LN—same as 304L, but also nitrogen is added to obtain a much higher yield and tensile strength than 304L.
A UNS number only defines a specific chemical composition, it does not provided full material specification. Requirements such as material properties (yield strength, ultimate strength, hardness, etc.), heat treatment, form (rolled, cast, forged, flanges, tubes, bars, etc.), purpose (high temperature, boilers and pressure vessels, etc.) and testing methods are all specified in the material or ...
304 stainless steel is also used in the architectural field for exterior accents such as water and fire features. It is also a common coil material for vaporizers. Early SpaceX Starships used SAE 301 stainless steel in their construction, [8] before moving over to SAE 304L for the SN7 test tank [broken anchor] [9] and Starship SN8 in 2020. [10]
Applications for superaustenitic stainless steel alloy AL-6XN include chemical processing, oil and gas, medical – sterilization and power generation [3] with specific applications identified in desalination, water piping systems. transformer cases in marine environments, food processing equipment, FGD scrubbers, reverse osmosis, and heat exchangers.
Alloy 20 is an austenitic stainless steel containing less than 50% iron developed for applications involving sulfuric acid.Its corrosion resistance also finds other uses in the chemical, petrochemical, power generation, and plastics industries.
Crevice corrosion of 316 stainless steel from desalination.. SAE 316L grade stainless steel, sometimes referred to as A4 stainless steel or marine grade stainless steel, is the second most common austenitic stainless steel after 304/A2 stainless steel.
