0Cr18Ni11Nb is a special austenitic stainless steel, which makes austenite more stable by adding niobium to the steel. This stainless steel has excellent corrosion resistance, especially when it comes to intergranular corrosion. In addition, it also has good stress corrosion resistance.
0Cr18Ni11Nb stainless steel contains high chromium (Cr) and nickel (Ni) elements, silicon (Si), phosphorus (P) and sulfur (S) content is relatively low. Specific chemical ranges may include chromium (Cr) at 24.0 to 26.0%, nickel (Ni) at 19.0 to 22.0%, silicon (Si) at 1.50%, phosphorus (P) at 0.045%, and sulfur (S) at 0.030%.
As for the delivery status, this usually relates to the manufacturing and supply conditions of the steel. In general, the delivery status may relate to the shape of the steel (such as sheet, bar, pipe, etc.), size, surface state (such as polishing, pickling, etc.), heat treatment state (such as annealing, normalizing, etc.) and other possible special requirements.
Because 0Cr18Ni11Nb stainless steel has good corrosion resistance, welding performance and processing performance, it is widely used in a variety of occasions requiring high corrosion resistance. For example, it is often used in petrochemical, synthetic fiber, food, paper and other industrial sectors, as well as thermal power plants and nuclear power industries, for the manufacture of large boiler superheaters, reheaters, steam pipes, shafts and various types of welded structural parts. In addition, because Nb is less prone to burn than Ti, this steel is often used as welding materials such as welding cores and welding strips.
0Cr18Ni11Nb stainless steel is a kind of high-quality steel with excellent corrosion resistance and good workability, which is widely used in various industrial fields.
