Lean Duplex UR2202: an alternative to 304L with increased corrosion resistance and mechanical properties

J. Peultier, S. Jacques and V. Baudu


Published online: 13 May 2009

Abstract
The paper presents the new Mo free duplex stainless steel UR2202 (EN 1.4062) developed to provide a cost effective alternative to 304L (EN 1.4307), concrete, organic materials or galvanized carbon steel in potable water systems, pulp & paper industry and construction applications. The reduction of Ni is balanced by a nitrogen addition in order to obtain a microstructure containing approximately 50% ferrite and 50% austenite. Several industrial heats were produced with 22Cr%, 2Ni% and 0.2N% as the typical composition. The new lean duplex grade UR2202 has better localized and uniform corrosion resistance and twice the yield strength than 304L.

What is OpenURL?

The OpenURL standard is a protocol for transmission of metadata describing the resource that you wish to access. An OpenURL link contains article metadata and directs it to the OpenURL server of your choice. The OpenURL server can provide access to the resource and also offer complementary services (specific search engine, export of references...). The OpenURL link can be generated by different means.
  • If your librarian has set up your subscription with an OpenURL resolver, OpenURL links appear automatically on the abstract pages.
  • You can define your own OpenURL resolver with your EDPS Account. In this case your choice will be given priority over that of your library.
  • You can use an add-on for your browser (Firefox or I.E.) to display OpenURL links on a page (see http://www.openly.com/openurlref/). You should disable this module if you wish to use the OpenURL server that you or your library have defined.
