Understanding the Applications and Uses of 2205
Duplex Stainless Steel?

• Duplex stainless steel is amongst the highest
  grades of stainless steel available in the
  market. They have a very rigid structure with
  extreme corrosion resistance. The duplex 2205 was
  formed in the year 1996 with the SS 18003 grade
  undergoing rigorous modification. Results came
  out and became one of the leading stainless steel
  quality of the industry. It is highly resistant
  to any damage caused by various things.
• Duplex stainless steel is highly resistant to
  corrosion and can handle extreme heat in higher
  and lower temperatures, before losing any
  structural capabilities. It will start to fail at
  a high temperature which can be only achieved
  when welding or bending. The extreme temperatures
  for it to operate successfully are 300 degrees
  and -50 degrees Celsius.
• SS 2205 Duplex steel is a mixture of two types of
  stainless steel. These two stainless sheets of
  steel are also commonly used for their benefits
  in the process. The two stainless steel are
  Austenitic and Ferritic stainless steel. Duplex
  stainless steel sheet adds the best quality of
  both stainless sheets of steel. Austenitic
  provides better corrosion resistance and Ferriti
  has a low effect on higher heat or temperature
  and is consistent with the structural core. The
  2205 duplex stainless steel prominently contains
  an equal percentage of Austenitic and Ferritic
  stainless steel.

Benefits of Duplex Stainless Steel.

• Duplex stainless steel contains a higher amount
  of chromium, molybdenum, and nitrogen and a lower
  amount of nickel. It adds up to create a
  fantastic alloy for corrosion resistivity and
  lightweight. The 2205 grade of stainless steel is
  far better than the 316 grade in every possible
  comparison.

Here are the Characteristics of Duplex 2205

• High Resistance to Chloride Stress Corrosion
• Chloride Pitting and Crevice Resistance
• Overall Corrosion Resistance
• Excellent Resistance to Sulfide Stress Corrosion
• Immense Strength
• Improved Weldability and Workability
• The low carbon content present in the alloy makes
  it highly repellent to any chemical reactivity
  and corrosion. It also allows protection from
  pitting and crevices, cracking, and chirping. The
  applications of 2205 duplex stainless steel are
  varied and can be used for multiple high-caliber
  industries.

Applications of Duplex Stainless Steel.

• Due to the high ratio of chromium, molybdenum,
  and nitrogen, the application properties are
  acceptable in marine industries. Brackish water
  is highly corrosive, and only the SS2205 Duplex
  Plates is capable enough to perform in such
  conditions. It can be further used in bleaching
  operations and closed-loop water systems. Duplex
  is also used in food processing industries with
  further procedures.
