What is Stainless Steel?

Stainless steel is a corrosion-resistant alloy of iron, chromium and, in some cases, nickel and other metals.

Completely and infinitely recyclable, stainless steel is the “green material” par excellence. In fact, within the construction sector, its actual recovery rate is close to 100%. Stainless steel is also environmentally neutral and inert, and its longevity ensures it meets the needs of sustainable construction. Furthermore, it does not leach compounds that could modify its composition when in contact with elements like water.

In addition to these environmental benefits, stainless steel is also aesthetically appealing, extremely hygienic, easy to maintain, highly durable and offers a wide variety of aspects. As a result, stainless steel can be found in many everyday objects. It also plays a prominent role in an array of industries, including energy, transportation, building, research, medicine, food and logistics. 

Families of Stainless Steel

There are five families of stainless steel: ferritic, martensitic, austenitic, duplex, and precipitation hardening. These names are derived from the crystal structure of the steels, which determines their metallurgical behavior.

Ferritic

Ferritic stainless steels are plain chromium stainless steels with a chromium content varying between 12% and 18% and a low carbon content. They are magnetic and not hardenable by heat treatment.

Martensitic

Martensitic stainless steels were the first stainless steels that were commercially developed (as cutlery) and have a relatively high carbon content (0.1% - 1.2%) compared to other stainless steels. They are plain chromium steels containing between 12% and 18% chromium. Alloy 410 is the basic, general purpose, and magnetic grade that is hardenable by quenching and tempering. These stainless steels can be heat treated to obtain high strength with good ductility.

Austenitic

Series austenitic stainless steels are non-magnetic. When nickel is added to stainless steel in sufficient amounts, the crystal structure changes to "austenite."

The basic composition of 300 series austenitic stainless steels is 18% chromium and 8% nickel. This enhances their corrosion resistance and modifies the structure from ferritic to austenitic.

Austenitic grades are the most commonly used stainless steels, accounting for more than 70% of production. (Alloy 304/304L followed by Alloy 316L are the most commonly specified grades by far.) They are not hardenable by heat treatment.

Duplex

Duplex stainless steel plate contains relatively high levels of chromium (between 18% and 28%) and low to moderate amounts of nickel (between 1.5% and 8%). The high corrosion resistance and excellent mechanical properties of duplex stainless steels can be attributed to their chemical composition and balanced (duplex) microstructure of approximately equal volume percentages of ferrite and austenite.

LDX 2101® is a low nickel, nitrogen-enhanced lean duplex stainless steel with corrosion resistance similar to 304 but with much higher mechanical strength. This enables it to be used in thinner cross-sections which provide cost savings to the end user. Alloys 2304 and 2205 are the most common grades. They both exhibit outstanding resistance to chloride stress-corrosion cracking.

“Super” duplex grades have enhanced pitting and crevice corrosion resistance when compared with 300-series austenitic stainless steels or conventional duplex alloys. This can be attributed to the enhanced levels of chromium, molybdenum and nitrogen found in these materials. Alloy 2507 is the most common “super” duplex grade.

Precipitation Hardening

Precipitation hardening stainless steels, like the martensitic types, can be strengthened (i.e., hardened) by heat treatment. The mechanism is metallurgically different from the process in the martensitic types. This means that either martensitic or austenitic precipitation hardening structures can be produced. These stainless steels combine high strength and hardness with corrosion resistance which is superior to that of the martensitic chromium stainless steels.
