Austenitic Stainless Steels: Structure and Properties (Volume 3) - by Greg Mayhew (Hardcover)

About the Book

Austenitic stainless steels are a type of stainless steel known for their excellent corrosion resistance and good formability. They contain high levels of chromium and nickel, which give them their strength and resistance to rust. These steels are non-magnetic and can be easily welded and formed into different shapes. Often used in kitchen equipment, medical devices and industrial machinery. Austenitic stainless steels maintain their strength at high and low temperatures, making them versatile for various applications. They are widely used also because they combine durability, ease of manufacturing and resistance to harsh environments, ensuring long-lasting performance in both daily and specialized uses. This book outlines the properties, structures and applications of austenitic stainless steels in detail. Different approaches, evaluations and methodologies and advanced studies on stainless steels have been included in this book. It is meant for students who are looking for an elaborate reference text on austenitic stainless steels.
