International stainless steel applications in the petrochemical industry and trend analysis
1. Asia's steel consumption has increased significantly.
2. In the global stainless steel production capacity of the overall surplus, the future of the new capacity will be mainly in China and India.
3. Because argon oxygen decarbonization technology and vacuum oxygen decarbonization technologies are emerging and improving, the future will depend on the continuation of development of super stainless steel. There is very low carbon and nitrogen in super martensitic stainless steel and super ferritic stainless steel will appear; and this has a higher nitrogen content, and can be more economically produced, with superior performance of the new austenitic stainless steel, the new duplex stainless steel and the new super-austenitic stainless steel and will be new introductions.
4. Some expensive stainless steel varieties will be appropriately replaced by cheaper varieties, duplex stainless steel alloy will be almost entirely replaced by the super martensitic stainless steel; Chromium - nickel austenitic stainless steel and chromium - nickel - molybdenum austenitic stainless steel to ferritic stainless steel aesthetic point of view, Cr - Mn austenitic stainless steel and duplex stainless steel will be replaced by nickel-section; super austenitic stainless steel with lower alloy content will be replaced by super duplex duplex stainless steel.
