Characteristics of Incoloy 800Alloy 800 is an iron-nickel-chromium alloy with moderate strength and good resistance to oxidation and carburization at elevated temperatures. It is particularly useful for high-temperature equipment in the petrochemical industry because the alloy doesn't form the embri
Read MoreWhat is Stainless Steel 904L?Alloy 904L (UNS N08904) is a superaustenitic stainless steel that is designed for moderate to high corrosion resistance in a wide range of process environments. The combination of high chromium and nickel content, coupled with additions of molybdenum and copper, assure g
Read MoreWhat Is ASTM A790?ASTM A790 is a standard specification for duplex stainless steel pipe. It covers the standard specifications for seamless and welded duplex (austenitic ferrite) stainless steel pipes. This standard requires that the chemical composition and mechanical properties of duplex stainless
Read MoreUnderstanding Monel 400Monel 400 is a nickel-copper alloy that is hardened by cold working only. Monel 400 has low corrosion rate in flowing seawater, therefore it is widely used in marine applications. Monel 400 also has excellent resistance to stress corrosion cracking in most freshwaters. Monel 4
Read MoreIntroduction254SMO (UNS S31254, ASTM F44, 1.4547) is a so-called super austenitic stainless steel. By increasing the molybdenum content to 6%, it achieves a pitting resistance equivalent number (PREN) > 43, which is similar to that of a super duplex stainless steel (SDSS). When comparing 254SMO to s
