UNS S22150 (Alloy 22-2.5Mo)
UNS S22150 (Alloy 22-2.5Mo) is a low-alloy austenitic stainless steel containing 2.5% molybdenum to improve its resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion in chloride-containing environments. It exhibits good high temperature strength and offers superior resistant to general corrosion and stress-corrosion cracking.
Alloy 22-2.5Mo is a frequently-used material in operations requiring resistance to strong acids, including sulfuric and hydrochloric acid. It is well suited for use in numerous applications such as pickling equipment and piping systems, as well as flue gas desulfurization systems. This material is an excellent choice for its excellent thermodynamic, chemical and mechanical stability in demanding environments.
Alloy 22-2.5Mo is non-magnetic and remains suitable for use in high temperature applications, making it the material of choice for closed-end connecters, containers, heat exchangers and other pressure vessels which are integral components of industrial processes requiring a corrosion-resistant material. Its relatively low chromium content makes it highly resistant to corrosion and oxidation, making it a go-to material for components that are exposed to various acids and mixtures.
In addition to its corrosion resistance, alloy 22-2.5Mo has great mechanical properties. This includes its toughness and strength, even at elevated temperatures. It can be easily welded and is ideal for use in complex assemblies. This exceptional material can also be formed and machined, making it a popular choice in fabrication operations.
Alloy 22-2.5Mo offers many benefits that have made it a versatile choice for many applications. It has excellent mechanical properties, offers outstanding corrosion resistance and is non-magnetic. It is also easy to weld, form and machine, making it well suited for fabrication operations. Furthermore, its excellent high temperature strength and resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion make it an ideal choice for many industries.
