Intergranular attack is caused by the formation of chromium carbides (Fe,Cr)23C6 at grain boundaries, reducing the chromium content and the stability of the passive layer on stainless steels. This type of corrosion was previously a potential risk for stainless steel because of its high carbon content. However, with modern steel making methods, it has become [...]
Source: International Molybdenum Association - PREN Comparison of Stainless Steel and Duplex Steel Materials Pitting Resistance Equivalent Number (PREN) is generally used to indicate the pitting resistance of stainless steels. In general: the higher PREN-value, the more corrosion resistant the steel. A PREN of 32 is considered the minimum for seawater pitting resistance. Furthermore a PREN-value ≥ [...]
Alloying Elements in Stainless Steel - Special Alloy Grades - Nickel, Chromium, Moly In metallurgy, stainless steel, also known as inox steel or inox from French inoxydable (inoxidizable), is a steel alloy with a minimum of 10.5% chromium content by mass. Stainless steel is notable for its corrosion resistance, and it is most widely [...]
