The unique properties of duplex steel come from its balanced chemical composition. The key alloying elements—Chromium, Molybdenum, and Nitrogen—provide enhanced strength and resistance to pitting and stress corrosion cracking.
| Grade (UNS) | Cr % | Ni % | Mo % | N % | Others |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| S31803 | 21.0–23.0 | 4.5–6.5 | 2.5–3.5 | 0.08–0.20 | C ≤0.03, Mn ≤2.0 |
| S32205 | 22.0–23.0 | 4.5–6.5 | 3.0–3.5 | 0.14–0.20 | C ≤0.03, Mn ≤2.0 |
Duplex Stainless Steel offers a superior combination of high tensile strength and ductility, along with excellent resistance to corrosion. These properties make it a powerful alternative to many austenitic grades.
| Property | S31803 (2205) | S32205 (2205) |
|---|---|---|
| Tensile Strength (min) | 620 MPa (90 ksi) | 620 MPa (90 ksi) |
| Yield Strength 0.2% (min) | 450 MPa (65 ksi) | 450 MPa (65 ksi) |
| Elongation (min) | 25% | 25% |
The cost of duplex steel is influenced by several factors, including grade, product form, and global market conditions for alloying elements such as nickel and molybdenum.
While the initial purchase price is typically higher than standard austenitic grades like 304 or 316, its superior strength and corrosion resistance provide significant long-term value by reducing maintenance and replacement costs.
