The chromium content promotes the significant resistance of the material to the effects of oxidation and corrosion. In addition to being resistant to most oxidizing acids, the stainless steel alloy ...

Chromium is added in smaller amounts (0.5-2%) to increase hardenability and larger amounts (4-18%) to increase corrosion resistance. Molybdenum is added in amounts of 0.25-0.40% to increase the ...

Type 304L steel can be welded without the resulting problem of carbon precipitation (precipitation of chromium carbide when heat is applied during the welding procedure which depletes the steel’s ...

Stainless steels are steels that contain a minimum of 10% chromium and are more resistant to corrosion ... Type 316 is austenitic steel containing molybdenum, giving it greater resistance to various ...
