The unique characteristics of stainless steel are manifested due to the chemical composition and structure of materials.

The steels included in the stainless steel group are divided into four groups depending on the specified parameters:

1. Chromium or ferritic.

This group of steels got its name because of the 20% chromium…

Duplex 2205 is duplex stainless steel enhanced with nitrogen that was developed to overcome typical corrosion problems with stainless steels of the 300 series. "Duplex" defines a family of stainless steels which are neither entirely austenitic, as stainless as 304, nor completely ferritic, as stainless as 430. The 2205 stainless steel duplex structure consists of austenite reservoirs, surrounded by a continuous step of ferrite. 2205 contains approximately 40-50…

Stainless steel is an iron alloy with at least 10.5 percent chromium content. Chromium impedes corrosion by forming a thin oxide film on the steel surface. Increasing the chromium content gives improved corrosion resistance.

304 Stainless Steel Tube also contains differing amounts of manganese,…

The Incoloy 825 pipe is highly corrosion resistant. It has a high content of nickel, enough to withstand chloride ion stress corrosion cracking and a very robust austenite structure. The molybdenum and copper levels allow the alloy to withstand reducing agents and acids. Chromium provides resistance to oxidizing conditions, such as solutions for nitric acid,…
