Grades de aço inoxidável austenítico de níquel

Nickel is known to be an expensive alloying element and is essential in some applications where both stress corrosion resistance and austenite structure are required. For example, creep resistance is important in high temperature environments, where austenitic stainless steels are needed. Similar to the traditional austenitic stainless steels, the twin boundary is a significant feature […]

Como escolher as adequadas ligas de aço inoxidável?

Stainless steel is the most popular metal used in kitchenware and other commercial applications because of its durability and resistance to corrosion. However, stainless steels are vulnerable to corrosion if exposed to saltwater and certain chemicals. When purchasing the right stainless steel grades, you should make sure that the following four terms – Corrosion-resistant, mechanical properties, […]

The choice of Stainless steel material for brewery

Stainless steel is widely used in the food and beverage industry due to its high temperature resistance, corrosion resistance and hygienic properties. Compared to other areas such as oil and gas production, beer brewing vessels and pipes are regularly cleaned using CIP (site cleaning). In order to obtain the best cleaning results, good surface treatment […]

Comparison of 301, 301L, 301LN steel plate

301 stainless steel is a type of austenitic stainless steel with a high work hardening rate. Its tensile strength can be up to 1300MPa or more. 1/16 hard to full hardening cold-rolled 301 plates are available and maintain sufficient ductility under 1/2 hardening conditions. It can be used for aircraft components, structural components of buildings, […]
