I agree that corrosion is one of very big culprit and reason why we must keep SS and CS separate.

From Welding point of view, one must NOT mix CS and SS, because they  have different mechanical properties.

CS is more ductile than SS, and if you mix during welding you will not get desired welding strength.

in cladding we use CS and SS both together, but we can not say it mixing, it is bonding, and both of them are playing their on role.

Thanks & Regards,

Soni.

CS and SS shall not be mixed and shall not come into contact with each other - 
 
 Reason when both SS and CS stocked together, carbon steel debris, particles, or scales will stick to the SS surfaces. Girinding particles from carbon steel will also fall on SS surfaces. These foreign particles or debris are have high carbon content and have anodic properties.   Anodic materials or particles can be corroded away easily, or you can say corrosion will start on the SS materials because of this carbon particles (it is obvious that carbon steels are prone to be corroded, if not painted). These foreign matters deposited on SS surfaces can create pitting corrosion on SS surfaces. Simply saying oxidation on SS will start because of this foreign matters or debris on carbon steels.
 
That is why most spec demands separate storage area and fabrication area for CS and SS.
 
CS and Alloy steels -  this also should not be mixed. but here corrosion is not the reason.  You cannot distinguish between CS and Alloy steel visually as both looks same. and you cannot identify which is CS and which is AS unless you have some marking or colour coding system. Both have equal affinity to corrosion. That is Colour coding of Alloy steels are must.

Hi ,


Can anyone pls let me know the reason why SS and CS should not mixed? Is it the same for CS and Alloy Steels???

Thanks and Regards

Re: [MW:34105] SA266 GR4N 4 Cycle SPWHT

Hi,  You are correct, Minimum refers to the one cycle for which this part will expose until final work shop PWHT. hence mill test certificate shall include this.  Max. SPWHT, refers to additional cycles of heat treatment that are reserved for future repairs during equipment lifetime.  Again, these simulated no. Of cycles shall be specified in MTC.  The idea is we need to make sure that steel mechanical properties are not compromised upon exposure to multiple repairs (i e 4 cycles in your case).  One could say, if steel is subjected to 4 cycles and is ok, then it should by defacto be good for one cycle, yet, this is wrong assumption cause mechanical problems and microstructure of materials varies accordingly based on no. Of cycles for which material will expose. This is apparent in alloy steel and especially for impact test values as an example.  In your case, this forged CS with properties before PWHT can be understood to be " as forged" condition (i.e. Wit...

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...
