Duplex stainless steels contain more than 19% chromium and have more than 30% of both ferrite and austenite. They were first invented in the early part of the 20th century, but not until the 1970s and 80s, with the introduction of argon oxygen decarburization (AOD) melting and the recognition of the benefits of nitrogen additions, that duplex stainless steels became attractive for widespread industrial use. Duplex stainless steels have found applications in most industries, including oil and gas, marine, desalination, power, chemical and process, pulp and paper, and mineral processing.
Modern duplex stainless steels are approximately 50/50 austenite and ferrite, and they combine the high strength of ferrite with the ductility of austenite. The addition of nitrogen enables better equi-partioning of elements between the two phases, higher strength in the austenite, better corrosion resistance, and improved weldability, to name but a few benefits.
Since the 1980s, a range of duplex stainless steels has been developed that have higher alloy content, and therefore greater corrosion resistance and strength. The commonly used duplex stainless steels have good corrosion resistance in a wide range of environments and excellent resistance to stress corrosion cracking (SCC). Their high strength and hardness also gives them excellent resistance to both erosion corrosion and cavitation. There are also cast versions of many of the duplex compositions and these have seen extensive use for pumps, valves, and other equipment.
Duplex stainless steels have been adopted by many industries to varying degrees. They are the workhorse corrosion resistant alloy (CRA) of the oil and gas industry, and are also widely used in the chemical and process industries for their SCC and corrosion resistance. Superduplex stainless steel has become the main alloy for piping, pumps, and valves in seawater reverse osmosis (SWRO) desalination plants, because of its resistance to crevice corrosion in seawater. This book covers a variety of corrosion types that may affect duplex stainless steels in service, presenting the available data and, in some cases, how to avoid problems. The final chapter covers the use of standards and specifications to procure good quality material for specific applications. It also covers the requirements over and above standard specifications necessary to obtain good quality material.
In this book, Roger Francis will review various duplex alloy compositions, mechanical properties, and design stresses for vessels and pipes to various codes. He will also cover the basics of welding duplex alloys, both to themselves and to other alloys, and their corrosion resistance. Of most importance, the book will look at a variety of types of corrosion that may affect duplex stainless steels in service, presenting the available data and, in some cases, how to avoid problems.

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to Mispah books, Redhill, Surrey, United Kingdom, without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
Exceptions to the right of withdrawal
The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
