Duplex Steel Composition: What Makes Duplex Steel The Best Stainless Steel Choice
The best thing about duplex stainless steel is that you get the best of both worlds, that is, a combination of both the impressive mechanical, kinetic, and chemical qualities of austenite and ferrite in one type of steel. Austenitic steel comprise 70% of the stainless steel market and the most commonly used steel for household items for its non-corrosive quality. Moreover, this type of steel has a high resistance against corrosion and pitting. Ferritic stainless steel, meanwhile, is characterized by great machinability and are very cost-effective.
