One of the features that characterize stainless steels is a minimum 10.5% chromium content as the principal alloying element. Four major categories of wrought stainless steel, based on metallurgical ...

Duplex stainless steels are typically known to have a dualphase microstructure that contains both ferrite and austenite grains. This so-called microstructure offers a uniquely beneficial combination ...

TWIP steels have a fully austenitic structure at room temperatures due to their high manganese content of 17% to 24%. Deformation twins created in these steels drive a large amount of deformation, ...

IN magnetic wire recording, the medium most frequently used for the recording of music is chromium-nickel austenitic stainless steel, which has been rendered ferromagnetic by drawing into fine wire.

Duplex steels were first developed in the 1970s, and since then, their use has gradually increased. They are used particularly in the oil and gas industry, in the paper industry, for water systems, ...

Nickel’s biggest use, about 65%, is in alloying – particularly with chromium and other metals to produce stainless and heat-resisting steels. Its primary function is to stabilize the austenitic ...
