254SMO Super Austenitic Stainless Steel

   254SMO super austenitic stainless steel, with German designation 1.4547, UNS designation S31254, and domestic designation 00Cr20Ni18Mo6CuN, is a type of standard six molybdenum alloy steel. This super austenitic stainless steel is developed for environments with halides and acids.

  The carbon content of 254SMO is very low, which means that the risk of carbide precipitation caused by heating is very low.

  This steel can still pass the Strauss Test ASTMA262 Practice E method even after one hour of sensitization treatment at 600-1000 degrees Celsius. However, due to the high alloy content of the steel, it is possible for the intermetallic phase of the metal to precipitate at the grain boundaries within the above temperature range. These precipitates do not pose a risk of intergranular corrosion when applied in corrosive media. Therefore, welding can be carried out without intergranular corrosion. The supporting electrode is ENICRMO-3, and the supporting welding wire is ERNICRMMO-3. However, in hot concentrated nitric acid, these precipitates may cause intergranular corrosion in the Heat-affected zone.

  In solutions containing ions such as chloride, bromide, or iodine, ordinary stainless steel is immediately eroded by localized corrosion in the form of spot corrosion, crevice corrosion, or stress corrosion cracking. However, in some cases, the presence of halides can accelerate uniform corrosion. This is especially true in the presence of halides in non oxidizing acids.

  In pure sulfuric acid, 254SMO has much greater corrosion resistance than 316L ordinary stainless steel. However, compared with 904L (NO8904) stainless steel at high concentrations, 254SMO has slightly weaker corrosion resistance. In sulfuric acid containing chloride ions, 254SMO has the greatest corrosion resistance. Due to the possibility of localized and uniform corrosion, 316L ordinary stainless steel cannot be used in hydrochloric acid, but 254SMO can be used in diluted hydrochloric acid at normal temperatures. There is no need to worry about point corrosion in the area below the boundary line, but efforts must be made to avoid the presence of gaps.

  In fluorosilicic acid (H2SiF4) and hydrofluoric acid (HF), the corrosion resistance range of ordinary stainless steel is very limited, while 254SMO can be applied over a wide range of concentrations and temperatures.
