UNS S31803 SA DUPLEX 2205 DUPLEX STAINLESS STEEL PLATE SHEET COIL
Duplex 2205 is a nitrogen enhanced duplex stainless steel that was
developed to combat common corrosion problems encountered with the
300 series stainless steels. “Duplex” describes a family of stainless steels that are neither
fully austenitic, like 304 stainless, nor purely ferritic, like 430
stainless. The structure of 2205 duplex stainless steelconsists of austenite
pools surrounded by a continuous ferrite phase. In the annealed condition, 2205 contains approximately 40-50%
ferrite. Often referred to as the work horse grade, 2205 is the most widely
used grade in the duplex family of stainless steels.
The advantage of a duplex structure is that it combines the
favorable qualities of a ferritic alloy (stress corrosion cracking
resistance and high strength) with those of an austenitic alloy
(ease of fabrication and corrosion resistance).
Usage of 2205 Duplex stainless steel should be limited to
temperatures below 600° F. Extended elevated temperature exposure
can embrittle 2205 stainless.
Corrosion Resistance
2205 duplex stainless steelis a cost effective solution for many
applications where the 300 series stainless steels are susceptible
to chloride stress corrosion cracking. Stress corrosion cracking occurs when stainless steels are
subjected to tensile stress, while in contact with solutions
containing chlorides. Increasing temperatures also increase the susceptibility of
stainless steels to stress corrosion cracking.
The combination of chromium, molybdenum and nitrogen convey the
good resistance of 2205to chloride pitting and crevice corrosion. This resistance is extremely important for services such as marine
environments, brackish water, bleaching operations, closed loop
water systems and some food processing applications. The high chromium, molybdenum and nitrogen contents of 2205 provide
corrosion resistance superior to common stainless steels, such as,
316L and 317L in most environments and HT company has been actively
involved in ensuring the best quality of the same to our clients.
This exotic alloy is used in oil and gas exploration, chemical
processing industries also make use of this alloy. Most of the processing equipment utilizes Duplex 2205. It is also used by storage and transportation units of industries. Pulp and paper digesters, liquor tanks and paper machines also use
Duplex 2205. It is highly suitable for usage in marine environments
