Corrosion resistance and main use environment: 254SMO stainless steel is a highly corrosion-resistant super austenitic stainless steel, developed for environments with halides and acids, and is widely used in harsh working conditions such as high-concentration chloride ion media and seawater. In various industrial situations in acidic media, especially in acids containing halides, 254SMO is far superior to other stainless steels, and in some cases can be comparable to Hastelloy and titanium. The lower carbon content and high molybdenum content make it have good resistance to pitting corrosion and crevice corrosion, and excellent resistance to intergranular corrosion. It is a cost-effective stainless steel that is widely used in the fields of chemical industry, desulfurization and environmental protection at home and abroad. widely used.
In pure sulfuric acid, 254SMO has much greater corrosion resistance than 316 ordinary stainless steel. However, compared with 904L (NO8904) stainless steel at high concentrations, the corrosion resistance of 254SMO is slightly weaker. Among sulfuric acids containing chloride ions, 254SMO has the greatest corrosion resistance. Due to the possibility of local corrosion and uniform corrosion, 316 ordinary stainless steel cannot be used in hydrochloric acid, but 254SMO can be used in dilute hydrochloric acid at normal temperatures. There is no need to worry about pitting corrosion in areas below the boundary line. But efforts must be made to avoid the existence of gaps. In fluorosilicic acid (H2SiF4) and hydrofluoric acid (HF), the corrosion resistance range of ordinary stainless steel is very limited, while 254SMO can be used in a fairly wide range of concentration and temperature.
