STAINLESS STEELS, THEIR IDENTIFICATION, PROPERTIES, AND APPLICATIONS

NICHTROSTENDE STAEHLE: KENNZEICHNUNG, EIGENSCHAFTEN UND VERWENDUNG

In this review, the identification of the stainless and corrosion resistant steels according to their applications is discussed. The differences between these and related steels are explained. The basic metallurgical significance of the influence of the principal alloying elements on the general corrosion characteristics and structure of the ferritic and martensitic 13% and 17% chromium steels and the austenitic Cr-Ni and Cr-Ni-Mo(-Cu) steels is pointed out. The systematics of the DIN symbols in the context of chemical composition are explained. Heat treatments, mechanical properties, and applications are tabulated.
