What temperature is 304 stainless steel plate suitable for use

2023-05-08
We all know that stainless steel is resistant to high temperature and corrosion, so what temperature is the 304 stainless steel plate suitable for use? The service temperature of 304 stainless steel plate is 190~860 degrees Celsius, but in the actual use process, the service temperature of 304 stainless steel plate cannot reach as high as 860 degrees Celsius. Why does this happen? What can 304 stainless steel achieve? What about temperature intensity?

In fact, the use temperature of 304 stainless steel plate is not suitable to be kept between 450 and 860 degrees Celsius. When the temperature of 304 stainless steel reaches 450 degrees, there will be a critical point. At this critical point, the stainless steel will dilute the chromium around the carbon element. Then chromium carbide is formed, and a chromium-poor area appears where the diluted chromium originally existed, and the appearance of a chromium-poor area will change the performance material of stainless steel. In addition, the temperature of 450 degrees Celsius and the yield force will make the austenite tend to body transformation.

Generally speaking, 304 stainless steel has better acid resistance, and the concentration of nitric acid is within 70%. The temperature is 0-80°C, etc. Stainless steel 304 is one of the materials with very good alkali resistance, and most alkalis can be used in the range of 0-100°C.
