Super Duplex Stainless Steel (SDSS) is an advanced alloy known for its excellent corrosion resistance and high strength. It combines the properties of both austenitic and ferritic stainless steels, making it suitable for demanding environments. The unique microstructure of Super Duplex allows it to perform exceptionally well in both acidic and chloride-rich conditions.
Super Duplex Stainless Steel (SDSS) is a hybrid alloy combining the best features of both austenitic and ferritic stainless steels. It typically contains a higher chromium (around 25%) and molybdenum (around 4-7%) content, resulting in enhanced resistance to corrosion, particularly in environments containing chlorides. The dual-phase structure (approximately 50% austenite and 50% ferrite) gives SDSS its exceptional mechanical properties.
The production of SS seamless welded pipes typically involves the following steps:
Pipes made from Super Duplex stainless steel should comply with various international standards, including:
