Using electrochemical tests and microscopy, researchers found AL6XN and its heat affected zone showed similar sensitization, while Inconel 625 showed none. AL6XN had lower polarization resistance than its heat affected zone. EBSD and EDS analysis linked corrosion differences to grain size changes and sigma phase dissolution, offering useful findings for welded corrosion resistant alloy applications.
- February 2024: Battery Mineral Resources Corp. announced the execution of an off-take agreement with Anglo American Sur. S.A. a division of Anglo-American PLC.
- January 2024: Laxmi Mittal, the executive chairperson of steel manufacturing corporation ArcelorMittal, announced that the corporation will build the world's single largest steel manufacturing site at Gujarat Hazira by 2029. Mittal was addressing the ongoing Vibrant Gujarat Global Summit (VGGS) 2024 while making the announcement.
Product Description
AL6XN plate is a superaustenitic stainless steel plate designed for severe corrosion service. Its composition contains iron with high levels of nickel, chromium, molybdenum, and nitrogen, giving the material strong resistance to pitting, crevice corrosion, and chloride stress corrosion cracking. The plate offers good strength, excellent toughness, and dependable formability for demanding fabrication. It is commonly used in chemical processing equipment, seawater handling systems, desalination units, flue gas desulfurization systems, heat exchangers, pressure vessels, pulp and paper equipment, and food processing machinery. AL6XN plate is selected when standard stainless steels may fail in aggressive environments, especially where chlorides, acids, or high temperature process fluids are present.
