✦ Synopsis
Woodhead Publishing Ltd., 1997. 204 pp.
In terms of a common engineering material, modern duplex stainless steels emerged in the early 1980s, developed from cast alloys. Their popularity stems from an attractive combination of properties, including high strength and excellent resistance to chloride stress corrosion cracking. Since this time, many grades have been developed and the production of duplex has increased dramatically. Presently, it is estimated that the world duplex market is about 500,000 T, which equates to about 10% of the world Fe:Cr:Ni stainless steel market, although some have predicted that this could grow to 50% by 2010. However optimistic this percentage might be, duplex stainless steels are established as a viable alternative to many other types of stainless steel and nickel base alloys. This rapid development has led to the production of the following book.Developments, grades and specificationsAlloy design
