2205 seamless piping
2205 duplex stainless steel is an (austenitic-ferrite) duplex stainless steel (referred to as 2205 duplex steel) composed of 22% chromium, 3% molybdenum and 4.5% nickel-nitrogen alloy. 2205 duplex stainless steel is a nitrogen-added duplex stainless steel with high strength, good impact toughness, and good overall and local stress corrosion resistance. 2205 Duplex Steel is particularly suitable for use in the -50°F/+600°F temperature range. The alloy may also be considered for applications outside this temperature range.
Duplex 2205 stainless steel (ferritic and austenitic) is widely used in applications requiring good corrosion resistance and strength. Grade S31803 stainless steel was modified several times to form UNS S32205, which was approved in 1996. This grade has higher corrosion resistance.
When the temperature is above 300°C, the microscopic components of this grade precipitate, and when the temperature is below -50°C, the microscopic components undergo a ductile-to-brittle transition; therefore, this grade of stainless steel is not suitable for use at these temperatures.
Duplex stainless steel 2205 standard number: ASTM A240/A240M--01 Duplex stainless steel 2205 alloy is a composite stainless steel composed of 22% chromium, 2.5% molybdenum and 4.5% nickel nitrogen alloy. It has high strength, good impact toughness and good overall and local resistance to stress corrosion.
Corrosion resistance
uniform corrosion
Due to the chromium content (22%), molybdenum (3%) and nitrogen content (0.18%), the corrosion resistance of 2205 is superior to 316L and 317L in most environments.
Local corrosion resistance
The content of chromium, molybdenum and nitrogen in 2205 duplex stainless steel makes it highly resistant to pitting and crevice corrosion in oxidizing and acidic solutions.
Resistant to stress corrosion
The dual-phase microstructure of stainless steel helps improve the resistance of stainless steel to stress corrosion cracking. Under certain conditions of temperature, stress, oxygen and chloride, austenitic stainless steel will undergo chloride stress corrosion. Since these conditions are not easily controlled, the use of 304L, 316L and 317L is limited in this regard.
Resistant to corrosion fatigue
The high strength and corrosion resistance of 2205 dual-phase steel make it highly resistant to corrosion fatigue. Processing equipment is susceptible to corrosive environments and loading cycles, and the properties of 2205 are ideally suited for such applications.
High resistance to chloride stress corrosion cracking
Resistant to chloride pitting and crevice corrosion better than 317L stainless steel
Good general corrosion resistance
