Was ist eigentlich Edelstahl?
What actually is high-grade stainless steel?

In unregelmässigen Abständen werden wir Ihnen hier Informationen rund um den Werkstoff liefern.

Korrosionsarten und deren Vermeidung bei Edelstahl

Als erstes beginnen wir mit Korrosionsarten und deren Vermeidung. Wir hoffen damit unserem Werkstoff zu noch mehr Einsatzmöglichkeiten zu verhelfen. Möchten aber auch dem Nichttechniker in verständlicher Form, Erklärungen rund ums Material bieten.

Which stainless steel should be specified for exterior applications

Stainless steel is one of the most durable materials used in architecture. However,stainless steel is not just one material; there are many different types with different properties and,most importantly,different levels of corrosion resistance.

Pratical guidelines for the fabrication of duplex stainless steels

Duplex stainless steels are a family of grades combining good corrosion resistance with high strength and ease of fabrication. Their physical properties are between those of the austenitic and ferritic stainless steels but tend to be closer to those of the ferritics and to carbon steel.
