Time: 06:30pm - 08:30pm

Registration Close Date: 21 Nov 2024

Stainless steels have been around for more than 100 years, but many experienced users still have only a hazy idea of the important differences between the corrosion resistance of various grades. Just as importantly, selecting a specific material depends on the mechanical or physical properties you need. The webinar will cover why stainless steels are corrosion resistant after reinforcing.

Key topics:

Why stainless steels are corrosion resistant
Choosing the stainless family: Before looking at corrosion resistance
Factors affecting your choice:

- Environment
- Availability and cost
- Design and processing requirements
- Specific mechanical or physical properties

What standards do not tell you about your stainless steel
Estimating corrosion resistance using PRE
Water with chloride, temperature, and pH variations
Burial of stainless steel: A very brief outline
Effects of crevices, finish, and chemical or electrochemical treatments
The IMOA model for atmospheric service: Multiple pathways to success

This summary outlines the critical aspects and key topics that will be covered in the webinar.
