What are the stainless steel materials? What are the model names of stainless steel materials?

Stainless steel is short for stainless steel, this kind of steel is resistant to air, steam, water and other weak corrosive media, some also resistant to chemical corrosion medium corrosion. The term "stainless steel" does not simply refer to a kind of stainless steel, each stainless steel has good performance in its specific field of application. Common stainless steel categories are martensitic steel, ferritic steel, austenitic steel, duplex stainless steel, etc., each category has a variety of different stainless steel models. This issue lists all kinds of stainless steel material model name.

Food grade stainless steel

Food grade stainless steel refers to the stainless steel material in accordance with the provisions of the National Standard of the People's Republic of China/Sanitary Standard for Stainless Steel Tableware Containers GB 9684-88. Unqualified stainless steel for food, may precipitate toxic elements, choose carefully. What kinds of food grade stainless steel are there? Food grade stainless steel mainly has 304 stainless steel and 316 stainless steel.

304 stainless steel is widely used in industry, furniture decoration industry and food and medical industry. ordinary 304 stainless steel and food grade 304 stainless steel is not the same, only the logo "food grade -GB9684" for food is safer. Similarly, 316 stainless steel and food grade 316 stainless steel is not the same. At the time of purchase, the regular goods will be on the surface and the inner wall of the product will be marked with the "food grade 304 stainless steel" logo, and the logo is "food grade - GB9684" products, higher safety.

304, 316 stainless steel which good?

Compared with 304 stainless steel, 316 stainless steel has stronger corrosion resistance. 304 stainless steel is suitable for general water, control gas, wine, milk, CIP cleaning liquid and other corrosive small or do not contact the material occasions. 316 stainless steel can be used for pure water, distilled water, medicine, sauce, vinegar and other health requirements, medium corrosion performance of the occasion. 316 stainless steel material is more expensive, used in high-end equipment, such as aerospace, food machinery and other fields. Food grade stainless steel for daily use, most common is food grade 304 stainless steel.

Chrome-nickel-manganese Austenitic Stainless Steel (200 series)

200 Series stainless steel introduction

The biggest advantage of 200 series stainless steel is relative to 300 series stainless steel price is cheap. This kind of steel is widely used in building decoration, kitchen utensils, health equipment and appliances, household appliances, transportation and industrial equipment and parts are widely used. But compared with 304, 200 stainless steel corrosion resistance is worse, processing is far less than 304 stainless steel. Whether 200 series stainless steel can be used for food is controversial, it is necessary to be careful when choosing.

What are 200 stainless steel

201 Stainless Steel

201 stainless steel in China is 1Cr17Mn6Ni5N, which belongs to high manganese and low nickel stainless steel with low nickel content and poor corrosion resistance.

Uses: All kinds of tabletop, countertop, kitchenware, as well as outdoor decoration engineering and urban decoration industry and high-end household products.

202 Stainless Steel

202 Stainless steel in China is 1Cr18Mn8Ni5N, in low nickel high manganese stainless steel, nickel content, manganese content about 8%, is nickel stainless steel.

Uses: Architectural decoration, municipal engineering, highway guardrail, hotel facilities, shopping malls, glass handrails, public facilities.

Fake 200 series

The fake and shoddy 200 series stainless steel products have serious defects in the design of chemical composition, corrosion resistance and other properties are not up to standard, Cr content is set at 16% ~ 18%, but the Cr content of these products is less than 15%; Nickel content in the national and international standards of 3.5 to 5.5 percent, such products are less than 1 percent nickel content. And sulfur, copper and other elements content is high, especially harmful to human health elements manganese, phosphorus content is higher. At the same time, once manganese enters the human body, it can cause different degrees of damage to the nervous, immune, endocrine, reproductive and other systems.

Ferritic Stainless Steel (400 series)

Introduction to ferritic stainless steel

Ferritic stainless steel contains 15%-30% chromium and has a body - centered cubic crystal structure. This kind of steel has the characteristics of large thermal conductivity, small expansion coefficient, good oxidation resistance, excellent stress corrosion resistance and so on. It is mostly used in the manufacture of parts resistant to atmospheric, water vapor, water and oxidizing acid corrosion.

Ferritic stainless steel type

409 stainless steel

409 stainless steel China brand 0Cr11Ti, 409L China brand 00Cr11Ti. 409 stainless steel is a ferritic stainless steel commonly used in machinery, construction and other engineering.
