Brief introduction of urea grade 00Cr17Ni14Mo2 (316L, UG) steel grade

Introduction to Steel Number 00Cr17Ni14Mo2(316L，UG)

Steel Number 00Cr17Ni14Mo2，also known as 316L，is a kind of stainless steel whose main components are iron (Fe), chromium (Cr), nickel (Ni), and molybdenum (Mo). It belongs to the type 316 austenitic stainless steel series. It has excellent corrosion resistance, good intergranular corrosion resistance, small transient temperature difference, strong processing ability and good weldability.

00Cr17Ni14Mo2 (316L，UG) stainless steel is a low-carbon stainless steel material with good corrosion resistance, which is widely used in the steel industry, especially for the production of equipment for the production of nitric acid and industrial vessels, chemical equipment, and petroleum refining pipelines.

00Cr17Ni14Mo2 (316L，UG) stainless steel has high chromium content, which provides excellent oxidation and corrosion resistance. The corrosion resistance of 00Cr17Ni14Mo2 (316L，UG) stainless steel is maximized with a low C content (<0.03%). The chromium content of 00Cr17Ni14Mo2 (316L，UG) stainless steel is not less than 16%, and the content of nickel is not less than 12%. In order to get better corrosion resistance, this kind of stainless steel can be added with a certain amount of molybdenum, not less than 2.5%.

In addition, steel number 00Cr17Ni14Mo2 (316L，UG) has good workability, weldability and formability, so it is easier to bend and process. Since 00Cr17Ni14Mo2 stainless Steel (316L，UG) has a high molybdenum content, it is better than other types of stainless steel in specific salt water conditions. In short, steel number 00Cr17Ni14Mo2 (316L，UG) is an excellent stainless steel material with good corrosion resistance, and is used for the manufacture of equipment for the production of nitric acid and industrial vessels, chemical equipment, and petroleum refining pipelines.

In conclusion, steel number 00Cr17Ni14Mo2 (316L，UG) is a kind of special stainless steel which can provide excellent corrosion resistance, good intergranular corrosion resistance, small transient temperature difference, strong processing ability and good weldability. Its main components are iron (Fe), chromium (Cr), nickel (Ni), and molybdenum (Mo), and the molybdenum content has reached the standard above 2.5%. It is widely used for the production of nitric acid and industrial vessels, chemical equipment and petroleum refining pipeline equipment.

00Cr17ni14Mo2 (316L) steel is a kind of corrosion-resistance stainless steel which is added with molybdenum and low-carbon. The content of molybdenum and chrome-nickel can reach 18-24%. It has excellent stainless steel corrosion resistance, good mechanical properties and processability, good hot working and cold working performance, and good welding performance.

00Cr17Ni14Mo2 (316L) UG (i.e. Urea Grade) steel is 00Cr17Ni14Mo2 (316L) steel made with ultra-low carbon content and specially designed for urea equipment. The steel material is stable in urea environment, has excellent resistance to intergranular corrosion, stress corrosion, Cl-induced pitting corrosion, and other corrosion. It has high manufacture re-heat resistance and low temperature toughness.

Application

00Cr17Ni14Mo2 (316L) is an ultra-low carbon stainless steel. In addition to its general characteristics, it has excellent resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion in an abrasive environment and is currently used in petroleum, chemical, medical and other industries. Typical applications include oil refining equipment, chemical equipment and medical equipment.

00Cr17Ni14Mo2 (316L) UG steel is suitable for the manufacture of urea process equipment. This steel has high manufacture re-heat resistance and low temperature toughness. It is required for urea or urea-containing solution of equipment operation, so that it can ensure that the equipment remains in the production process of long-term work will not be damaged or reduce life.

Conclusion

In conclusion, 00Cr17Ni14Mo2 (316L) and 00Cr17Ni14Mo2 (316L) UG steel are both stainless steels with excellent corrosion resistance. 00Cr17Ni14Mo2 (316L) is suitable for various industries, but only 00Cr17Ni14Mo2 (316L) UG steel is suitable for the manufacture of urea process equipment because of its high manufacture re-heat resistance and low temperature toughness.
