Duplex stainless steels comprise a mixture of ferrite and austenite, producing a alloy with many of the advantages offered by both structures. They generally have comparable or better corrosion resistance to austenitic steels, with more than twice the yield strength, and are especially resistant to pitting corrosion and stress corrosion cracking in chloride environments. Duplex stainless … Continue reading DUPLEX STAINLESS STEELS
