Introduction
00Cr21Mn5NiN stainless steel (referred to as 00Cr21Mn5NiN SS) is a low-alloy dual phase stainless steel. It is a new type of stainless steel with excellent corrosion resistance and mechanical properties. 00Cr21Mn5NiN stainless steel has been widely used in many industrial fields due to its unique performance characteristics and corrosion resistance.
1. Physical Characteristics of 00Cr21Mn5NiN Stainless Steel
00Cr21Mn5NiN stainless steel has a low carbon content, good ductility and toughness, and excellent mechanical properties. It also has good weldability, forming properties and corrosion resistance. Its density is 7.8g/cm3 and its specific gravity is 7.7.
2. Corrosion Resistance of 00Cr21Mn5NiN Stainless Steel
00Cr21Mn5NiN stainless steel has excellent corrosion resistance due to its low carbon content and the addition of nickel and chromium. It is highly resistant to pitting, crevice corrosion and Intergranular corrosion (IGC). It also has good resistance to stress corrosion cracking (SCC) and corrosion fatigue.
3. Weldability of 00Cr21Mn5NiN Stainless Steel
00Cr21Mn5NiN stainless steel is easy to weld and has excellent formability. When welding, the heat affected zone is small and the strength of the welded joint is high. However, preheating is required before welding to reduce the welding residual stress and prevent cold cracking.
4. Applications of 00Cr21Mn5NiN Stainless Steel
Due to its excellent corrosion resistance, 00Cr21Mn5NiN stainless steel is widely used in the manufacture of industrial equipment, such as chemical containers and process equipment, tubular components, and valves and pumps. It is also used in the construction industry for bridges, buildings, and façade cladding.
Conclusion
00Cr21Mn5NiN stainless steel is a low-alloy, dual phase stainless steel with excellent corrosion resistance and mechanical properties. It has good weldability and forming properties, and is resistant to pitting, crevice corrosion, Intergranular corrosion (IGC) and stress corrosion cracking (SCC). It is widely used in the manufacture of industrial equipment, as well as in the construction of bridges, buildings and façades.
