In this episode, Dr. Jim Fritz, industry veteran and current consultant for the Nickel Institute, sits down with co-hosts Heather Allain and Marc Cook to discuss the capabilities and limitations of duplex stainless steels. The three chat about the primary advantages of duplex stainless steel, including cost and resistance to stress corrosion cracking; primary disadvantages, including reduced formability; welding and managing the quality process; controlling the austenite-ferrite balance of duplex; and the upper and lower temperature limits for duplex stainless steels.
