With regard to general corrosion and oxidation, stainless steels with 16-18% Cr passivate and have good resistance to aqueous corrosion and various types of other acidic or corrosive environments at room temperature and up to about 200-300 °C.2 Additions of molybdenum give type 316 better resistance to pitting and acidic attack. Effects of stress can aggravate corrosion resistance, and types 304 or 316 processed to have Cr-carbides precipitated along grain boundaries can suffer from stress-corrosioncracking (SCC), which causes grain-boundary cracking at reduced ductility to embrittle the steel. Lower carbon steels (304LN, 316L) tend or reduce or eliminate SCC, as do the stabilized stainless steel grades such as 321 and 347, which form TiC or NbC carbides to prevent Cr-carbide precipitation at grain boundaries. Exposure to supercritical water at 300 °C and above can be very corrosive, and cause oxidation of
austenitic stainless steels.16 Generally, 300 series austenitic stainless steels have minimal oxidation in air at 500 °C and below, but oxidation and the protective behavior of chrome-oxide scales become a concern at 550-600 °C and above. Finally, 300 series steels such as types 304 and 316 tend to show little or no corrosion and behave quite well in liquid-metal sodium environments at 650 °C and below. More detailed information on austenitic stainless steels and their corrosion behavior in aqueous environments, oxidation at elevated temperatures, and behavior in liquid metals such as sodium is available in other chapters of this publication, or elsewhere.
