What is Al 6XN material?

What is Al 6XN material?

AL-6XN® alloy (UNS N08367) is a low carbon, high purity, nitrogen-bearing “super-austenitic” stainless alloy. The AL-6XN alloy was designed to be a seawater resistant material and has since been demonstrated to be resistant to a broad range of very corrosive environments.

What is 6XN?

AL-6XN (UNS designation N08367) is a type of weldable stainless steel that consist of an alloy of nickel (24%), chromium (22%) and molybdenum (6.3%) with other trace elements such as nitrogen. The high nickel and molybdenum contents of the AL-6XN alloy give it good resistance to chloride stress-corrosion cracking.

Is 6Mo stainless steel?

6Mo (UNS S31254) is a super austenitic stainless steel with a high level of molybdenum and nitrogen, providing high resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion as well as high strength compared with conventional austenitic stainless steels such as 316L.

What grade is super duplex?

Our duplex steel grades 2507 and 4501 are regarded as super duplex stainless steel grades. They are highly alloyed and have a corrosion resistance comparable to high performance austenitics like 254 SMO®.

When was Inconel invented?

1950s
The development of INCONEL@ alloy 625 (UNS N06625) was started in the 1950s to meet the then-perceived demand for a high-strength main steam-line piping material.

What is the difference between super duplex and stainless steel?

Super duplex stainless steel is essentially duplex stainless steel, but with additional characteristics. It possesses 25% chromium content, 7% nickel content, and 4% molybdenum content. Because it possesses more of each element, it has higher resistance to corrosion than does duplex stainless steel.
