UR52N

UR52N  is also a super duplex stainless steel, which came out and was put on the market in 1990~1991. Compared with HuaNickel 00Cr25Ni7Mo4, the amount of molybdenum in this steel is slightly lower, but about 1.5% copper is added, so that the performance of this steel resistance to reducing acid media, such as sulfuric acid corrosion resistance, has been significantly increased, and in some environments, the performance of crevice corrosion resistance and corrosion resistance has also been improved.

UR52N Alloy properties：

The steel also has a duplex structure of α/γ close to 1 in the structure suitable for solution treatment, but according to the continuous cooling curve of this steel, there will be intermetallic phases such as σ and x.

UR52N Uses of alloys：

It is mainly used in petrochemical, fertilizer and papermaking and hydrometallurgical industries to manufacture towers, tanks, pipelines, containers, heat exchangers, etc., to solve the problems of uniform corrosion and pitting, crevice corrosion and abrasion of sulfuric acid, phosphoric acid and chloride-containing media.

UR52N Process performance：

Welding process: This steel can be welded using the same process as conventional stainless steel, but GMAW, GTAW, and manual arc welding are more commonly used.

Heat treatment: The heat treatment process of this steel is heated at 1100 °C, and then quenched after heat preservation. For medium and extra-thick plates with a thickness of 35 mm and 150 mm, the cooling rate (middle part of the plate) of this steel needs to be ≥ 5000°C/h to obtain an impact energy of -50°C≥ 50J without intermetallic phase precipitation.
