Duplex stainless steels are a unique class of alloys that offer exceptional strength and corrosion resistance, making them highly suitable for a range of industrial and commercial applications. Their unique properties, which arise from a combination of ferrite and austenite phases, provide an excellent balance of mechanical strength and ductility, making duplex steels suitable for various manufacturing processes. This article explores the different grades of duplex stainless steels, their key properties, and the various applications where they are used.
Grades, Properties, and Applications of Duplex Stainless Steels:

It is also widely used in the chemical, petroleum, gas, pulp, and paper industries.
022Cr25Ni7Mo4N (S32750, 2507)
It is the best steel in duplex stainless steels for local corrosion resistance, especially spot corrosion resistance. It also has high strength, chloride stress corrosion resistance, and weldability. It is well-suited for heat exchange equipment in the chemical, petroleum, and power industries where water, groundwater, and seawater are used as cooling media.
022Cr25Ni7Mo4WCuN (S32760)
By adding W and Cu to the 022Cr25Ni7Mo3N steel, the performance of the Cr25 duplex steel is improved. In particular, its resistance to chloride pitting and crevice corrosion is better, making it suitable for heat exchange equipment with water (including seawater and brine) as the medium.
022Cr21Ni3MoN (S32003)
With 1.5% Mo content, the corrosion resistance is improved by combining Cr and N, making it more corrosion-resistant than 022Cr17Ni12Mo2 (316L stainless steel) and similar to 022Cr19Ni13Mo3 (317L-istainless steel). It is an ideal replacement for 022Cr17Ni12Mo2 (316L stainless steel). At the same time, this steel also has high strength, making it suitable for applications in chemical storage tanks, pulp paper making, building roofs, bridges, and other fields.
03Cr22Mn5Ni2MoCuN (S32101)
With low Ni and high N content, it has high strength, good corrosion resistance, and weldability, while significantly reducing manufacturing costs. This steel has better corrosion resistance than 022Cr19Ni10 (304L stainless steel) and similar to that of 022Cr17Ni12Mo2 (316L stainless steel). It is an ideal replacement for 06Cr19Ni10 (L-istainless steel 304) and 022Cr19Ni10 (304L-istainless steel), and is widely used in the fields of petrochemicals, shipbuilding, paper making, nuclear power, seawater desalination, and construction.
022Cr21Mn5Ni2N (S32001)

This steel has corrosion resistance similar to that of 022Cr19Ni10 (304L stainless steel) and can be used as a replacement for 06Cr19Ni10 (304 stainless steel) and 022Cr19Ni10 (304L stainless steel) in applications such as construction, transportation, and petrochemicals.
022Cr21Mn3Ni3Mo2N (S81921)
With 1% to 2% Mo and higher N content, it has good corrosion resistance, weldability, and is cost-effective due to the replacement of Mn and N for Ni. This steel has corrosion resistance similar to or better than that of 022Cr17Ni12Mo2 (316L stainless steel), with significantly improved stress corrosion resistance. It is an ideal replacement for 022Cr17Ni12Mo2 (316L stainless steel) and is used in construction, storage tanks, paper making, petrochemicals, and other fields.
