Materials

ALLOY 311.4562 – UNS N08031 – X1NOCrMoCu

Alloy 31 is characterized by outstanding resistance to corrosion in halide media, both acidic and basic; outstanding resistance to sulfuric acid, even highly concentrated; outstanding resistance to corrosion and erosion-corrosion in phosphoric acid media; excellent resistance to both localized corrosion and general corrosion in chlorine dioxide bleach media; excellent resistance to both reducing and oxidizing media, and ease of fabrication and welding. Approval for pressure-vessel use involving wall temperatures from -196 to 550ºC (-320 to 1020ºF).

Applications

  • Chemical and petrochemical industries
  • Environmental engineering
  • Oil and gas production

General characteristics

  • The higher conditional stress values of up to 90% of the yield strenght at temperature may be used for applications in which slightly greater deformation is acceptable.
  • Alloy 31 has a face-centered-cubic structure. The 0.2% nitrogen content stabilizes the austenite and reduces the tendency to precipitation of intermetallic phases.
