Super Duplex Steel

Super Duplex Steel

What is Super Duplex Stainless Steel?

Super duplex stainless is the same material as duplex, but the mix is 50/50 stainless steel made of ferritic and austenite. Super duplex has a higher Molybdenum and Chromium content, which makes this material more corrosion-resistant.

How is Super Duplex Stainless Steel made?

Super duplex stainless steel contracts after being heated to between 1470 and 1550°C, transforming it into an alloy known as annealing. In annealing, duplex undergoes a slight change in the texture of its crystal structure, making its surface thicker and more ductile. After the process of producing super duplex stainless steel is complete, it must be annealed (heat-treated) and pickled (treated to prevent corrosion) before it is ready for use.

What are the advantages of Super Duplex Stainless Steel?

Super duplex stainless steel has a microstructure that contains both ferrite and austenite. When this material is heated to the point of melting, it solidifies from a liquid state to a pure austenitic structure. As it cools, approximately half of its structure changes to a ferrite phase. This results in an alloy with the structure of around half ferrite and half austenite. Duplex alloys have higher strength and greater corrosion-cracking resistance than ferritic alloys and a higher strength at low temperatures.

Benefits of Super Duplex Stainless Steel

Corrosion Resistance

Duplex stainless steel is exceptionally resistant to intergranular corrosion. In chloride and sulfide environments, Duplex stainless steel has exceptional resistance to stress-corrosion cracking.

Heat Resistance

High chromium content allows Duplex stainless steel to withstand corrosion, resulting in brittleness at temperatures over approximately 300° C. Duplex stainless steels exhibit higher ductility at low temperatures. Alloys of this grade can be readily used down to approximately -50° C.

Welding

Duplex stainless steel has excellent weldability. All standard welding techniques can be applied. They are not quite as strong as the austenitic grades but low thermal expansion of the duplex grades reduces distortion and residual stresses after welding. Recommended filler material for 2205 stainless steel is 2209.
