Corrosion-Resistant Steel Casting: Alloys for Marine and Chemical Environments
The role of corrosion-resistant steel casting in preventing rust and degradation of equipment are especially crucial in marine and chemical environments. Knowing what steel casting materials are corrosion-resistant for these applications is important because they will help the machinery last longer and operate better. Proper alloy selection needs to be taken care of when deploying Steel Investment Casting in chemical environments otherwise a chance for corrosion will be opened up, which can degrade the strength and property of the casting materials. A stainless steel that is fully austenitic, non-magnetic and less likely to intergranularly corrode under the right conditions compared to 316/316L or 317/317L case hardened designs are upgraded with a coating specifically meant for marine as well as chemical environments by Pengxin. This way the equipment can be used to operate properly, without being damaged by corrosion, if it has been manufactured from an alloy chose...
