[MW:984] RE: 887] RE: 882] alloy steels

Shell Global Solutions International B.V. definition as follows

 

High-alloy steel:  Stainless steels, 12 Cr and higher

Low-alloy steel:  Steels from 0.5 Mo up to 9Cr-1Mo

   Steels from 0.5 up to 9% Ni

Unalloyed steel: Carbon manganese steels, including 0.3 and 0.5 Mo steels

There is no such clear demarcation, can vary from institution to institution

 

ASM classification as below

Plain carbon steel (<0.2C called as low carbon steel)

LAS <= 8% of total alloying elements

HAS > 8% of total alloying elements

 

By this all your below netioned materials can be called as LAS (except P91), where as even P91 comes under LAS family  in case ASME BPV

 

More views are welcome!

dear members,

 

how can we classify the alloysteel materials as low alloy /highalloy.

 

if we can classify  then P 91/P22/P11/16M03/DINWB 36

comes under which category.

Heat tint (temper) colours on stainless steel surfaces heated in air // Heat tint

Introduction The colour formed when stainless steel is heated, either in a furnace application or in the heat affected zone of welds, is dependent on several factors that are related to the oxidation resistance of the steel. The heat tint or temper colour formed is caused by the progressive thickening of the surface oxide layer and so, as temperature is increased, the colours change.   Oxidation resistance of stainless steels However, there are several factors that affect the degree of colour change and so there is no a single table of colour and temperature that represents all cases. The colours formed can only be used as an indication of the temperature to which the steel has been heated. Factors affecting the heat tint colours formed Steel composition The chromium content is the most important single factor affecting oxidation resistance. The higher the chromium, the more heat resistant the steel and so the development of the heat tint colou...
