Duplex stainless steel refers to ferrite and austenite each accounting for about 50%. Generally, the content of less phase also needs to reach at least 30% of stainless steel. In the case of low C content, the Cr content is 18% to 28%, and the Ni content is 3% to 10%. Some steels also contain alloying elements such as Mo, Cu, Nb, Ti, and N.
This type of steel has the characteristics of both austenite and ferritic stainless steel. Compared with ferrite, it has higher plasticity and toughness, no room temperature brittleness, significantly improved intergranular corrosion resistance and welding performance, while maintaining iron Element stainless steel has 475 ° C brittleness, high thermal conductivity, and superplasticity. Compared with austenitic stainless steel, it has higher strength and significantly improved resistance to intergranular corrosion and chloride stress corrosion. Duplex stainless steel has excellent pitting resistance and is also a nickel-saving stainless steel.

1D—The surface has discontinuous particles, which is also called matte. Processing technology: hot rolling + annealing shot peening pickling + cold rolling + annealing pickling.
2D—Slightly shiny silver-white. Processing technology: hot rolling + annealing shot peening pickling + cold rolling + annealing pickling.
2B—Silver white and better gloss and flatness than 2D surface. Processing technology: hot rolling + annealing shot peening pickling + cold rolling + annealing pickling + quenching and tempering rolling.
BA—The surface gloss is excellent and has a high reflectivity, just like the mirror surface. Processing technology: hot rolling + annealing shot peening pickling + cold rolling + annealing pickling + surface polishing + quenched and tempered rolling.
No.3—has better gloss and rough surface. Processing technology: Polishing and tempering rolling of 2D products or 2B with 100 ~ 120 abrasive materials.
No.4—has better gloss and fine lines on the surface. Processing technology: Polishing and tempering rolling of 2D products or 2B with 150 ~ 180 abrasive materials.
HL—Silver gray with hair streaks. Processing technology: Polish the 2D product or 2B product with a suitable size of abrasive material to make the surface appear continuous grain.
MIRROR—is in a mirror state. Processing technology: 2D or 2B products are ground and polished to a mirror effect with a suitable abrasive material.
