What is Carbon steel and stainless steel?

Carbon steel is an iron alloy with less than 2% carbon, no chromium, and contains copper and magnesium not more than 0.6% Stainless steel is an iron alloy with less than 2% carbon and it contains chromium and it's resistive to corrosion


Difference between milled steel and stainless steel?

Milled steel is a cheap form of iron-carbon alloy that is subject to corrosion but is malleable and does not suffer from the brittleness issues of Stainless steel. Stainless steel contains additional compounds that reduces atmospheric and hydro-corrosion and increases the hardness of the steel. This makes it more expensive, less malleable and is more likely to suffer from stress fatigue and stress fractures


What is welding gas?

Welding gas can refer to two things. In torch welding, it is either a fuel gas such as acetylene or MAPP or oxygen, and in arc welding (MIG, TIG, etc...) it refers to any of the inert gases such as carbon dioxide or argon that is pumped over the weld pool to protect it from atmospheric contaminants.


How ordinary iron to stainless steel?

Oversimplifying it alot: Iron + Carbon --> High Carbon Steel High Carbon Steel + Chromium & other surface alloy metals --> Stainless Steel Basically Stainless Steel is ordinary Steel with a surface Chrome Steel layer protecting it from corrosion.


Why need to do PWHT for carbon steel use to caustic service pipe?

There is caustic stress corrosion cracking when carbon steel is exposed to concentrated caustic solution. Caustic SCC is driven by tensile stress, susceptible material and concentration of caustic. So, lack of PWHT will increase susceptibility also hardness and residual stress that is the more significant factor in caustic corrosion. Thanks and Regards Abdul Khaleem Abdul Razak

Can Hexamine be used as a corrosion inhibitor?

Yes, hexamine can be used as a corrosion inhibitor for metals like aluminum and carbon steel due to its ability to form a protective film on metal surfaces. It is commonly used in industrial applications to protect against corrosion in various environments.


Does carbon steel rust?

Carbon steel is a type of steel in which the main alloying element is carbon. It is prone to rusting but treating it can offer a small amount of protection against corrosion.

What element sacrifices itself to protect steel?

Zinc is the sacrificial element that sacrifices itself to protect steel from corrosion through a process called galvanization. Zinc forms a protective layer over the steel surface, preventing oxygen and moisture from reaching the steel and causing corrosion.


What do crowcon gas detectors protect against?

One of the main ones is carbon monoxide. But they're advanced units, and will protect against pretty much any poison or combustable gas you can think of.


What Large amounts of atmospheric carbon dioxide are absorbed by what?

The ocean absorbs large amounts of atmospheric carbon dioxide, and is acidified thereby.


What is the relationship between the rise of ocean temperatures and the rise in the level of atmospheric carbon dioxide?

The relationship between the rise of ocean temperatures and the rise in the level of atmospheric carbon dioxide is that when there is a rise in atmospheric carbon dioxide the warmer the temperature of the ocean is
