1, the PRE number (Pitting Resistance Equivalent) and The PRE is defined as, in weight-% PRE = %Cr + 3.3 x %Mo + 16 x %N
The minimum PRE-value is 41.
2, Solution annealing: Slow heating up to 1000°C (1830°F). Annealing at 1050-1125°C (1920-2060°F), followed by quenching.
Material Summary
1. An austenitic-ferritic super duplex stainless steel with nitrogen.
2. High resistance to stress corrosion cracking in environments containing hydrogen sulfide or chloride-bearing environments.
3. Excellent resistance to spot corrosion, gap corrosion and uniform corrosion, high resistance to erosion corrosion and corrosion fatigue
4. Good weldability, good hot-working properties because of good physical properties and very high mechanical strength
5. Application for mechanical and structural components that require both high strength and high corrosion resistance and burning (waste) gas purification equipment.
