Description Austenitic Stainless Steel Elements: Of all elements added to the basic alloy of chromium and iron, nickel is the most important. It not only improves corrosion resistance but also changes the alloy’s structure and mechanical properties. Austenitic Stainless Steel Structure: As nickel is added in increasing amounts to a ferritic…
