RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT
Corus’s Swinden Technology Centre (formerly Swinden Laboratories) is a major focus for the Company’s steel
research, the technological development of steel products and of the industry’s metallurgical and related engineering
processes.

The Centre has a reputation, built over 50 years, for technical excellence, quality and innovative research associated
with carbon, alloy and stainless steels for applications as diverse as transport, aerospace, construction, power
generation, packaging and engineering.

The Centre extends over a 6.5 hectare site with fifteen major laboratory buildings providing some 19000m2 of
laboratory, test facilities, pilot plant and offices for the 400 technical staff.

Working directly with the Company’s customers, the supply chain, Corus’s producing works and through links with
other Research and Technology Centres worldwide, Swinden Technology Centre has helped Corus exploit the
versatility and cost effectiveness of steel. The Centre’s expertise covers all the main product forms; plates, sections,
rails, tubes, strip and billet derived products, as well as fabrication and downstream processing, putting the Centre at
the heart of both established and emerging market sectors.

Swinden Technology Centre operates a thematic approach to its technological innovation across the full spectrum of
Corus Metals’s activities:-

• Protection of strategic raw materials supply.


• Reducing further the manufacturing costs on existing producing routes.
• Optimise and seek alternative approaches to finishing processes.
• Development and use of clean plant technologies.
• Enhancing product quality.
• Expansion of existing and new markets for steel.
• Developing value added new products.
• Combating the threat of alternative materials.

v
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT
Outokumpu’s Research and Development Department (R&D) is an important strategic asset for the Group, focusing
on applied research into products and steel grades and the development of new manufacturing processes and
applications. R&D is based at Avesta. In addition to its own in-house resources at Avesta and Sheffield, R&D uses
the services of Corus Technical’s Research Laboratories.

R&D maintains close links with the Group’s marketing organisation and the end-users of stainless steel products.

Considerable interest has been generated in the market by the Group’s 654 SMO steel grade. Cold rolled coil and
sheet in this grade - produced at Nyby and Långshyttan - are used in an increasing number of applications, e.g. plate
heat exchanges and condenser tubes for the nuclear power industry.

Whilst priority is given to special steel grades, the development of standard stainless steel grades is a continuous
process and involves close cooperation with manufacturing units on production methods, surface quality, tolerances
and flatness, etc. Other important aspects of this development work include welding and forming techniques for
stainless steel and design specifications.

R&D is involved in two research projects for the direct casting of liquid metal into thin strip, one at the Institute for
Metals Research (MEFOS) in Luleå and the other at Corus’s Teeside laboratories. The results of the research have
provided valuable knowledge which can be exploited once the technology and equipment available for direct strip
casting can offer a reliable, commercially viable alternative to conventional manufacturing methods. For Outokumpu,
the two main implications of this development are firstly the need to decide whether to invest in the new technology
and secondly, the repercussions for the competitive climate. A breakthrough in developments could have an impact
on the competitive situation and give rise to new investments.

R&D has been actively involved in the introduction of common standards for standard stainless steel grades, which
were adopted in 1995. This standardisation should have the benefit of substantially reducing the number of variants
on standard grades manufactured and stocked by the Group.

KBR 2000
Stainless Sheet/Coil
makes it more economical
to think

2000 mm wide Sheet/Coil

A1
KBR Wide Sheet/Coil
saves more than 20% of manufacturing costs
What is KBR?
KBR is an abbreviation which in Swedish stands for Cold, Wide and Stainless. It has become known as the name for
the widest continuously cold rolled stainless sheet and light gauge plate in the world.
KBR is regularly available in 2000mm width and standard thicknesses from 1.5mm-6.0mm. Also 72 inches and 80
inches in gauge thicknesses are regularly rolled. For special projects or large repeating requirements, it can be
supplied in custom widths, as well as custom thicknesses and lengths to very precise tolerances.
In order to meet your immediate requirements, KBR is available from Outokumpu stocks worldwide and from selected
service centres offering standard or special lengths, cut from coil.
KBR is available in both standard stainless steel grades and in many special grades produced by Outokumpu to meet
particular requirements for strength, corrosion resistance, or high temperature properties.
Why Outokumpu KBR Wide Sheet?
Outokumpu KBR sheet enables you to fabricate a higher quality product at lower total costs.
Example
The example below is taken from a documented cost study for the commercial manufacture of a large cylinder from
stainless steel by a fabricator experienced in large construction. KBR saved some 20% of the manufacturing time and
produced a better quality product with a more appealing appearance. As illustrated, savings were realised in each
step of the manufacturing process compared with the model using 1500mm wide material. Similar advantages can
also be obtained when designing tanks using longitudinal welds.

EXAMPLE OF COST SAVING WITH KBR


Manufacture of a cylinder: Height 7500 mm Diameter 2100 mm Wall thickness 6 mm
Using 1500 mm sheet Using KBR 2000 mm
5 pieces 6594 x 1500 x 6 mm 3 pieces 6594 x 2000 x 6 mm
1 piece 6594 x 1500 mm x 6 mm
1. Rollforming, tack welding and
plasma welding 1170 minutes 936 minutes
2. Joining the shells together
and tack welding 720 minutes 540 minutes
3. Welding of shells -
plasma welding 864 minutes 648 minutes
4. Post treatment of welds*
(visual inspection and pickling) 288 minutes 216 minutes
TOTAL TIME 3042 minutes or 51 hours 2340 minutes or 39 hours

TOTAL TIME SAVING – 23 PER CENT


* If more elaborate post treatment is required, e.g. grinding radiographic examination, dye penetration, the time taken will be longer.

More welds mean


• more seam grinding and inspection time • visually less appealing construction • more shop time • less shape
stability on larger vessels • more edge preparation • increased risk of corrosion • greater costs

KBR 2000 offers the following advantages:


• 2000 mm wide sheet means a better overall appearance
• 2000 mm wide sheet cuts costs by reducing time spent on welds, post weld treatment, testing and handling
• 2000 mm wide sheet requires less edge preparation
• 2000 mm wide sheet reduces corrosion risks
• 2000 mm wide sheet makes it possible for some components to be fabricated with no seams
• 2000 mm wide sheet provides ease of fabrication and greater shape stability in large vessels
• 2000 mm wide sheet is easy to keep clean - an important factor for applications where demands on hygiene
are high, e.g. the food, beverage and pharmaceutical industries

PROTECTIVE ADHESIVE FILMS

The metals industry is under increasing pressure to produce high quality products at lower prices. This
has resulted in the use of technologically advanced production machinery to increase productivity. The
technology involved in protective films has had to keep pace with these changing demands. We have a
variety of protective adhesive films are available to meet the various demands of the metals industries.

Applications - Deep Drawing, Laser Cutting, Turrett Punching, Pressing, Roll forming,
Storage, Transportation, etc,.

Material types - Stainless steel, aluminium, copper, brass, pre-painted steels.

We can supply protective film in rolls for you to apply as required, or we can apply them to sheet in our local
service centres.

Please contact Corus Metals to discuss the most appropriate film and application method for your end use.
Testing may be required prior to commencing production runs.

DIE-COVER FILM

Simply lay Die-cover film


over the female die.

Die-Cover film is a proven and economical way to prevent die marks when using a press brake to form
Stainless Steel, Aluminium, pre-finished or painted metals. Film life will vary with a number of factors such
as the thickness of the metal being formed, the type of metal, and the severity of the bend. While some
customers forming light gauge aluminium are getting several hundred bends on a single piece of film,
others forming heavy gauge stainless steel may get only a few bends.

2205 CENTRELESS GROUND SHAFT
GRADE 2205 GRADE 2205
2205 is a ferritic-austenitic stainless steel which A duplex type steel combining very high mechanical
combines many of the beneficial properties of both strength with very good corrosion resistance, especially
ferritic and austenitic steels. As a result of high chromium to stress corrosion cracking
and molybdenum contents, the steel has very good
pitting and uniform corrosion resistance. The duplex C Cr Ni Mo OTHERS
microstructure gives high resistance to stress corrosion
cracking as well as high mechanical strength. The
0.02 22 5.5 3.0 N
weldability of 2205 is good.

EXPANSION FLANGES
Corus New Zealand Limited
A purpose designed seal for wall, floor and ceiling penetrations of process piping in food and beverage plants or any
applications where a waterproof hygienic seal is required.
Design allows for lineal expansion and contraction of pipework whilst maintaining an intrinsic seal to prevent ingress
or water etc. to penetrated material. (See detail 1).
The flange can also be adapted to accommodate Steam Pipe or Non-Standard tube diameters by adding a Teflon or
heat resistant liner. (See detail 2).

BUTTERFLY VALVE - HYGIENIC
Working principal
Type SS-BFV is manually operated by means of a handle, which can be disengaged from its locking position by pulling
it outwards. When the handle is at right angles to the pipe line, a disc closes against a sealing ring. When the handle
is turned 90° the disc is parallel to the liquid flow and the valve is fully opened.

Optional extras
A. Pneumatic motor
B. Micro-switch unit for the airmotor

Ordering
Specify SS type BFV – Manual or Automatic.
Seal Material - Silicone

• The shutter can be tightened manually.


• The tightness of the valve shutter by means of a torque wrench is adjusted as follows:
– Put a torque wrench with correct driver on to spindle, as shown on the picture
– Adjust the torque wrench to the torsional moment given in the above table, depending on the valve size
– Tighten the regulating screw by the Allen wrench, testing at the same time from the torque wrench, until the
desired torsional moment of the spindle is reached.
• If the shutter is tightened too much, it can be damaged.
• It should be observed that new valves are always delivered from the factory with the shutter pressure released after
pressure test.

provides at a glance information; more detailed data is given in specific product folders and leaflets.
Technical and other data in this publication are typical for wrought products and may not be regarded as guaranteed
maximum or minimum values for a given product, unless otherwise specifically stated.

Austenitic and Duplex Steel Grades


The most common Outokumpu steels (austenitic and duplex) are given in Table 1 with typical values for chemical
composition. Besides the steels presented here, other variants and less common steels intended for special purposes
or tailored to special customer specifications are manufactured by agreement. .
Structure
A ferrite number (FN) can be calculated from the heat analysis, providing a measure of the steel’s tendency to form
ferrite upon rapid solidification. In the final product, however, the ferrite content is negligible in the austenitic steels.

Steels that have to meet high requirements of purity and structure are remelted in an ESR plant (electroslag
refining).
Improved properties for machining are obtained through special metallergical practice that alters the steel structure.
Standard steels treated by this method are marketed with the suffix PRODEC®.

The tables for tensile strength at room temperature (Table 3) and strength at elevated temperatures (Table 4) give
minimum values in accordance with Swedish and British standard. In cases where such a standard is lacking, values
are based on Outokumpu’s own test data.
The tensile properties pertain to transverse specimens and maximum plate thickness 30 mm.
Design values stipulated in national standards apply to pressure vessel plate. The design values are based on the
material’s proof stress and/or tensile strength.
The strength properties of standard austenitic grades can be approved –
• by nitrogen addition; indicated by an N in the designation for standard grades
• by cold deformation (i.e. cold stretching or rolling).

Other Material Data
The table below shows typical temperatures and temperature ranges of interest in connection with fabrication and
application.

Quench annealing
Refers to recommended material temperature. Cooling shall be carried out rapidly in air or water to avoid undesirable
precipitations. Steel used for pressure vessel fabrication does not normally require heat treatment after welding or
cold forming less than 15% for austenitic and 10% for duplex grades. When quench annealing is necessary, the
temperatures shown in the table are recommended.

Pressure vessel application


Refers to temperature ranges within which the steel can normally be used, provided that no corrosion problems are
encountered. Specific pressure vessel standards may prescribe different values for general approval.

Welding
Austenitic stainless steels possess very good welding ability. Ferritic steels are more difficult to weld and ferritic
consumables are not available. Austenitic filler metals type 309L and Avesta P5 (309LMo) can sometimes be used.
The table below gives recommended filler materials produced by Avesta Welding AB.

Ferrite and Martensite Numbers


These numbers reflect the structural stability of stainless steels and their tendency of forming ferrite or martensite.
They are primarily used to balance the compositions of stainless steel grades in order to influence desired properties
with respect to, for instance, welding, hot forming, cold forming or permeability.
The ferrite number FN is an empirical value which describes the amount of ferrite obtained after rapid solidification
of an austenitic melt (weld metal or ingot). This number is calculated with the aid of equivalents for the ferrite and
austenite forming elements in the steel composition and the use of a Schaeffler diagram.
In the Schaeffler diagram opposite the following formulae for calculating ferrite numbers (FNA) have been used. Some
typical Outokumpu grades are plotted in this diagram. There are also other formulae for this calculation.

DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS WHEN SPECIFYING
STAINLESS STEEL
Corrosion may be defined as the chemical interaction between a metal and its environment to form compounds. The
reaction of metals with gases (sometimes referred to as dry corrosion) can be distinguished from the reaction of metals
with aqueous solutions (wet corrosion) which involves complex electro-chemical processes. Generally, stainless steels
as a group of alloy steels are susceptible to both types of attack mentioned, depending on the grade of material
selected, the structural design chosen, the method of fabrication used and the service conditions prevailing.
An alloy consists of a homogeneous mixture of two or more elements, of which at least one is a metal and all the
resulting phases have metallic properties. The high alloy stainless steels are usually chosen as structural materials
because of their corrosion resistance and attractive surface finish and because they require minimum maintenance
in operation. These properties of the stainless alloys are intimately related, because the surface of a stainless steel
is covered with a very thin, tenacious film of chromium oxide which “passivates” the metal surface, giving to it the
“stainless” qualities. If mechanically damaged, the film will reform (i.e. re-passivate) in the presence of oxygen, or
other oxidants, as long as the chromium content exceeds about 12%.
Although passive oxide films on metals and alloys give excellent protection against corrosion, they have the
disadvantage that a change in the service conditions can lead to destruction of the protective oxide film and
consequently to rapid general or localised corrosion. In this condition the alloy is said to be “active” and it may suffer
from a rate of corrosive attack comparable with that for plain mild steel. This relatively rare problem may be overcome
by careful selection of a grade of stainless steel which is more corrosion-resistant because of the addition of alloying
elements such as molybdenum, copper, titanium and niobium.

Corrosion problems encountered with stainless steels

Several types of corrosion impair the successful use of stainless steels. Many failures can be prevented by the early
recognition of corrosion damage and by taking the necessary steps to avoid them. Stainless steels can suffer several
types of corrosion damage:

• high temperature corrosion • galvanic corrosion


• general corrosion • inter-granular corrosion
• pitting corrosion • stress corrosion cracking
• crevice corrosion • M.I.C micro-biologically induced corrosion

High temperature corrosion


If stainless steel comes into contact with hot gases, direct chemical reaction may occur between the gas and one of
more of the alloying elements in the steel. The products of these reactions depend on the gas (or vapour) and the type
of stainless steel. But a surface film will be formed which may protect the underlying metal against attack, as long as
it does not become a scale or cause a metallurgical phase change to occur. The scaling temperature of ferritic and
austenitic stainless alloys is about 850°C, above which deleterious thermal stresses may lead to cracking and scaling
of the protective film. Some points about oxidation of stainless steel in hot gases that should be remenbered are:

(1) Extended exposure at high temperatures can result in embrittlement of austenitic stainless steels, or in
“sensitisation” which diminishes the ability of the alloy to withstand corrosion, particularly in acid-chloride
conditions.

(2) Thermal cycling, particularly in the presence of moisture and condensation, has a deleterious effect on some
stainless steels. Ferritic steels are less affected by this problem than are austenitics, owing to a lower co-
efficient of thermal expansion.

(3) The choice of stainless steels for high temperature use requires a knowledge of the service conditions, such as
the likely operating temperature and the composition of any gases present.

(4) Stainless steels containing nickel (i.e. the 300 series austenitic alloys) are susceptible to a special type of
corrosive attack in the presence of a reducing atmosphere containing sulphur compounds, such as hydrogen
sulphide. This atmosphere can be generated in a flue by combustion of oil, coal or coke and flue gases are thus
frequently very corrosive towards type 304 stainless steel.

J14
DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS
continued

General corrosion
Stainless steels require adequate access to air (oxygen) to maintain the passive oxide film. If the surface of the steel
becomes active through contact with reducing agents (such as hydrogen sulphide and sulphur dioxide) in acidic
conditions, then general corrosion of the steel can result. Passivity of the surface can be restored by removal of any
corrosion products and treatment with a solution of an oxidising acid such as nitric acid. Hydrochloric acid should
not be used for this purpose as chlorides have a deleterious effect on the passive film, which can lead to localised
pitting.

Pitting corrosion
If there is a highly localised loss of passivity, such as may occur in the presence of chlorides, bromides or flourides,
then pitting can take place. This produces cavities penetrating deeply into the metal at a much faster rate than general
corrosion. A small anode inside the pit becomes acidic and very active, leading to rapid metal dissolution and insidious
attack at weak points across the surface. Pitting may be controlled by the following methods:

• Select Type 316 (containing molybdenum) stainless steel or a proprietary duplex grade, which have increased
resistance to pitting attack.
• Aerate or agitate aqueous solutions in contact with stainless steel to eliminate stagnant pockets.
• Design out any crevices from structures and maintain a good surface finish which provides the best resistance
to pitting.
• Where possible avoid contact with chlorides and other foreign ions which may initiate localised corrosion.

Crevice corrosion
This form of corrosive attack concentrates in narrow fissures where oxygen access is poor. Inside the crevice a
small anode forms and remains active while the large cathodic surface outside the crevice remains passive and
accentuates the attack. Stainless steels are very susceptible to crevice corrosion which can occur in welds that fail
to penetrate, in flange joints and under deposits on the steel surface. Essentially, pitting and crevice corrosion are
the same phenomenon, but the attack starts more easily in a fissure than on a clean surface. Therefore, to minimise
this problem, attention should be paid to the same details that reduce pitting. However, if crevices cannot be avoided,
then they should be sealed off with mastic or silicone rubber to eliminate moisture ingress. In certain situations the
use of a welded overlay in susceptible areas, involving a more corrosion-resistant alloy type, may be considered,
particularly if erosion by moving liquid corrodents is also a potential problem. The use of stainless steels embedded in
concrete should present few problems except at the steel-concrete interface with the atmosphere, where a crevice-
type situation could develop and contaminants might accumulate. It would be advisable to seal these crevices with a
mastic or butyl rubber to avoid any possibility of localised attack at this junction.

Intergranular corrosion
Intergranular corrosion occurs along the grain boundaries of a metal without appreciable attack within the grains.
Metals affected by intergranular corrosion may lose their metallic properties such a ductility and crack easily when
bent. This damage is usually not visible and is minimal compared with the amount of metal oxidised.
The mechanism of intergranular corrosion involves a difference in electric potential established between the grain
boundaries and the interior of the grains. This can arise because of the presence of precipitate-free zones which can
accompany intermetallic precipitate formation in the grain boundaries. Thus, austenitic stainless steel, e.g. Type 304,
may lose some chromium near grain boundaries through formation of chromium carbides when heated between
550°C and 850°C (called “sensitisation”). The chromium-depleted zones become anodic relative to the remainder
of the passive surface and chemical action in the presence of a corrodent can result in rapid attack along the grain
boundaries.
An example of intergranular corrosion is “weld decay” which may occur in the heat-affected zone of a welded seam
in sensitised austenitic stainless steel. This problem can be overcome by the use of very low carbon steels (“L” type),
or stabilised grades containing titanium (Type 321) or niobium (Type 347). A solution heat treatment procedure will
also remove the chromium carbide phase but this method is rarely used. Excessive heat input and arc strikes
during welding can also lead to intergranular attack on or close to welds in stainless steels once the alloy is in use.
Welding procedures which may be suitable for austenitics are not necessarily suitable for ferritic types.

DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS

Galvanic Series of metals and alloys in sea water

Galvanic corrosion
Galvanic corrosion is the oxidation of the less noble (or more active) member of a pair of metals which are in contact
and is also called dissimilar metal corrosion. The intensity of the attack (i.e. the rate of corrosion) on the more active
metal depends on the following factors:

• The reactivity of the dissimilar metals is indicated by their relative positions in the Galvanic Series of metals. If two
metals are coupled, the metal nearer the active end of the series will be anodic and suffer increased corrosion,
whereas the metal nearer the bottom will be the cathode. Generally, the further apart the two metals are in the
Galvanic Series, the worse will be the galvanic corrosion of the more reactive metal. If dissimilar metal contact
is inevitable, then metals should be selected which are very close in the Galvanic Series.
• In practice, a large cathode coupled to a small anode will give very intense corrosion and can lead to severe
damage of the anodic metal.
• Insulation of dissimilar metals will increase the resistance of any electrolyte between anode and cathode, thereby
reducing the corrosive attack.

In oxidising solutions, stainless steels behave as cathodes and any other metal in contact may corrode. When
the solution is reducing, the stainless steel may become active and metals such as copper and its alloys become
cathodic and accelerate the corrosion of the stainless steel.
Under certain conditions when a stainless steel forms a galvanic cell, hydrogen ions (acid) may be formed, which can
alter the surface of the stainless steel from passive to active, with a consequent shift in its position in the Galvanic
Series. This can have a deleterious effect on the stainless alloy. For example, a small piece of mild steel, copper,
scale or other foreign matter embedded into stainless steel may be sufficient to destroy passivity at the point of
contact. The attack starts as a microgalvanic cell and pitting action can be initiated which, unless re-passivated, will
lead to insidious attack. To avoid this problem, when stainless steel structures are commissioned into service they
should be free from oil, scale, grinding dust or small particles of steel from tools, dies or rollers. On no account should
welding slag or other contamination be removed from a stainless steel surface with a mild steel wire brush. Only
a stainless steel brush should be used and even this may affect the passivity by increasing the surface roughness,
creating microcrevices on the alloy surface.

J16
DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS

Stress corrosion cracking


If a metal is subjected to a tensile stress and is simultaneously subjected to a corrosive environment, then a rapid form
of penetrating attack can occur called stress corrosion cracking (SCC). Stresses, whether static of fluctuating, weaken
the passive oxide film on the metal and cause accelerated anodic attack at the highest stress points. Cracking may
be intergranular or transgranular and occurs more frequently at high temperatures and in environments containing
chlorides. The tensile stresses may result from manufacturing, bending or welding, or may be caused by operational
factors. Heavily cold-worked parts are most susceptible to SCC in severe conditions.
To avoid SCC, attention should be given to the following points when an alloy type prone to cracking is to be used in
a corrosive environment.

• Minimise residual stress levels in any stainless steel structure. Heat treatment procedures to relieve stress are
available for stainless steels.
• When stress relieving is not feasible, a ferritic or a proprietary duplex alloy should be considered.
• Specify that perforated plates or steels be fully stress-relieved after forming if they are to be used as screens where
the environment is known or suspected to contain a substance that induces SCC.
• Avoid cyclic bending, which repeatedly stresses stainless steels above their yield strength. This can build up
internal stresses, so that even a mildly corrosive medium will cause SCC.
• Avoid joining metals of differing coefficients of expansion where a structure is to be heated and cooled in operation.
Austenitic stainless steels expand about one and one-half times as much as ferritic or plain steels. Duplex alloys
have similar expansion coefficients to those of the ferritic alloys.
• Avoid designs with cavities where water or liquors may collect and evaporate during cyclic operation and so build
up salt concentrations in the cavity.
• Avoid build-up of corrosive salts from insulating materials, drips, condensation or corrosive sprays on the walls of
vessels made of austenitic stainless steel.
• Ferritic and duplex grades of stainless steels are more SCC-resistant than are austenitics, but ferritics may suffer
from pitting and present special problems when welded. Incorrect welding procedures on ferritic stainless steel
(e.g. Type 444) can initiate intergranular corrosion of the weld metal, resulting in premature failure of the welding
structure even in a mildly corrosive medium such as hot water of relatively low chloride content.

Corrosion fatigue and erosion


Stainless steels have higher corrosion fatigue limits than do plain carbon steels, but prior thermal treatment may have
a marked influence on this form of damage. The former also show excellent resistance to cavitation, erosion and
impingement attack, leading to wide usage for the manufacture of impellers and propellers for marine applications.
Nevertheless, fretting corrosion, which results from friction or wear between two materials in contact (one or both of
which are metals) and subject to vibration while in the presence of a corrodent, can result in damage to stainless steel.
If the passive oxide film is broken down by such operating conditions, crevice corrosion and SCC may be initiated,
leading to unexpected service failures.
The main causes, effects and cures of corrosion problems with stainless steels are well understood and documented.
The failures that do occur could be avoided by the correct selection of the alloy type, good design and fabrication
techniques and a maintenance schedule that includes regular inspection and cleaning of the structure.

J17
Stainless Steels used in ordinary
outdoor or indoor environments
Stainless steels are often specified because of
their attractive appearance, even though their main
attributes are long service life and low maintenance
costs. But all materials - including stainless steels -
may become stained in time by dirt, oil grease, paint,
etc. which may impair the overall impression. Advice
and suitable methods are described in this brochure,
both for preventing discolouration and for cleaning
stainless steel surfaces as well as for removing
different types of stains.

WHAT IS STAINLESS STEEL?


Stainless steel is the collective name for a family
of steel grades which, due to a content of at least
11% chromium, is inherently resistant to rust. This
property is what engineers call corrosion resistance.
The chromium in the steel reacts with the oxygen
to which the steel surface is exposed, and forms
an invisible film of chromium oxide which protects
the steel against corrosion attack. This condition of
the steel surface is described as being passive. If
the oxide film is damaged, either mechanically or
by chemical attack, the oxide film will form again
spontaneously when the surface comes into contact
with oxygen, even in concentrations as low as those
occurring in ordinary water. The higher the chromium
content, the better the corrosion resistance of the
steel. This property is reinforced further if the steel is
alloyed with molybdenum. Nickel is added to give the
steel a structure (austenitic) which makes it easy to
form and weld.

Conventional stainless steels have a chromium


content of around 18% and a nickel content of 8- 9%
and are known as 18-8 steels. These are generally
used for kitchen equipment, domestic appliances and
other indoor applications, and for parts used in
moderately corrosive outdoor atmospheres. In humidity and elevated temperatures increases the risk
coastal regions and in polluted urban and industrial of corrosion. See also the section on “Atmospheric
atmospheres, molybdenum-alloyed stainless steels corrosion” in the AvestaPolarit Corrosion Handbook.
are usually necessary to ensure adequate corrosion
resistance. This also applies to swimming baths, in The compositions of the most common stainless steel

Preventive measures in project design,
production and installation
All stainless steels are clean and passivated when
they are delivered by the steel manufacturer. In other
words, the material has a natural corrosion resistant
film over its entire surface. The following instructions
should be taken into account from the moment of
project design, through to the production and
installation stages, particularly for building
components installed outdoors, in order to maintain
as much as possible of the original appearance and
corrosion resistance of the stainless material:

• Specify the correct grade of steel, taking into


account the occurrence of deposits and air
pollutants such as soot, sulphur dioxide, salt water
or road salt in the immediate surroundings.

• Select the correct design that allows rain water


to rinse away all deposits of dust and dirt from the
entire surface.

• Specify a grade of steel with a higher alloy


content for parts that are inaccessible to rain
water or for parts installed in geographical
locations where rainfall seldom occurs.

• Use fasteners, such as nails, screws and bolts,


made of stainless steel during installation.

• Avoid the risk of galvanic corrosion between


components of stainless steels and those of plain
carbon steels in areas exposed to moisture and
water (e.g. by providing electrical insulation).

• Use clean tools that are free from residues of


plain carbon steel, such as swarf and iron particles
from earlier work.

! Do not use steel brushes or steel wool


made of plain carbon steel.

! Do not carry out shot blasting using


ordinary steel shot or sand that has
been used for shot blasting plain
carbon steels.

! Do not use hydrochloric acid for


removing residues of cement or
mortar on stainless steel. Instead use
water to wash off the mortar before
it dries. Hydrochloric acid may not
be used for cleaning stainless steels.

J19
Preventive washing with water
Stainless steel building components installed
outdoors, such as roofs and cladding, will
usually be kept clean by normal rainfall.
However, in dry geographical locations and
on surfaces which are inaccessible to rainfall,
it may be necessary to periodically wash the
surface with water.

With components for which an attractive


appearance is particularly important, such as
office building cladding, shop entrances and
signs, regular cleaning may be advisable in
order to maintain the original sheen of the
material. Washing also removes dirt and
impurities that may cause corrosion attack
and discolouration of the surface if they are
left in place too long. The more polluted the
environment, the more often such washing
should be carried out. The intervals between
washing can be determined from experience,
but the following guidelines should be
observed, depending on the grade of steel and
the environment.

Environment Washing intervals


(Type 304) (Type 316)

Clean inland environment 3 - 6 months 6 - 12 months

Polluted urban environment or


Unsuitable 6 - 12 months
Industrial atmosphere

Coastal atmosphere Unsuitable 3 - 6 months

Washing is best carried out with soap


or a mild detergent and warm water,
followed by rinsing with clean cold
water. The appearance of the surface
can be improved further if the washed
surface is wiped dry.

The above method of cleaning is also suitable for


domestic appliances, kitchen equipment, sanitary
installations and other products made of stainless
steel and used in normal indoor applications.

J20
CLEANING OF STAINLESS STEELS

How to maintain the original surface


A stainless steel may be discoloured by rust

• if it is exposed to a more aggressive environment then that for which that particular grade of steel is
intended, e.g. highly polluted air, salt solutions or residues of cleaning agents containing chlorine
• if it has a rough surface finish that provides a foothold for corrosive substances and corrosion
products from the surroundings
• if the design of the structure is inappropriate, with pockets and narrow gaps
• if the surface is contaminated by grinding swarf and other iron particles from tools used in the
installation work
• if fasteners of ordinary steel are used for securing the material, or if the material comes into direct
contact with adjacent components made of plain carbon steel in wet or humid conditions.

The risk of corrosion in the first three situations is highest for the lower-alloy stainless steel grades and
can be reduced substantially right from the start by specifying molybdenum alloyed stainless grades
(such as type 316). In the last two cases, the surface of the stainless steel will be discoloured by rust
from the plain carbon steel.

If the stains or discolourations on the stainless steel surface are so serious that they cannot be removed
by normal washing with water, the following cleaning methods are recommended.

Removal of stains and discolourations


Stain type Cleaning agent and method

Fingerprints Wash with soap, detergents or hydrocarbon solvents such as alcohol,


thinner or acetone, rinse with clean cold water, and wipe dry.

Oil and grease Wash with organic solvents, such as those mentioned above, then wash with
soap or mild detergent and water, rinse with clean cold water, and wipe dry.
More stubborn stains Wash with a mild abrasive detergent, rub in the direction of the visible surface
and discolourations structure, rinse with clean cold water, and wipe dry.
Or:
Wash with a 10% phosphoric acid solution, rinse with ammonia solution, then
with clean cold water, and wipe dry.
Temper colour and Wash with an abrasive detergent as described above.
more serious stains Or:
Rub with Scotchbrite sponge in the direction of the visible structure, rinse with
clean cold water and wipe dry.

Rust stains Wet the surface with oxalic acid solution, leave it for 15-20 minutes, rinse with
clean cold water, and wipe dry. If necessary, repeat the washing procedure
with an abrasive detergent as described above.

Paint Wash with paint solvent (use a soft nylon brush), and then rinse with clean
cold water, and wipe dry.

Scratches on a ground Polish with a polishing wheel (using an iron-free abrasive) in the direction
or brushed surface of the structure, wash with soap or mild detergent and water, rinse with clean
cold water, and wipe dry. N.B. The method must not be used for material with
a 2B or 2D finish, or on patterned or decorated surfaces.

PROTECTIVE MEASURES
Use acids (acetic acid, citric acid, oxalic acid, phosphoric acid) only if other methods have proved inadequate. Wear
rubber gloves and protective goggles, and follow your local safety regulations for such work. Ensure good ventilation
when using solvents and note the risk of fire. Always follow your local safety regulations.
