  2. Austenitic stainless steel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Austenitic_stainless_steel

    In 200 series stainless steels the structure is obtained by adding manganese and nitrogen, with a small amount of nickel content, making 200 series a cost-effective nickel-chromium austenitic type stainless steel. 300 series stainless steels are the larger subgroup. The most common austenitic stainless steel and most common of all stainless ...

  3. Non-stick surface - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-stick_surface

    Non-sticking cookware is a common application, where the non-stick coating allows food to brown without sticking to the pan. Non-stick is often used to refer to surfaces coated with polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), a well-known brand of which is Teflon. In the twenty-first century, other coatings have been marketed as non-stick, such as anodized ...

  4. Marine grade stainless - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marine_grade_stainless

    SAE 316 stainless steel is a molybdenum-alloyed steel and the second most common austenitic stainless steel (after grade 304). It is the preferred steel for use in marine environments because of its greater resistance to pitting corrosion than most other grades of steel without molybdenum. [ 1 ]

  5. Chemical tanker - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_tanker

    Chemical tankers often have a system for tank heating in order to maintain the viscosity of certain cargoes, typically by passing pressurized steam through stainless steel 'heating coils' in the cargo tanks. These coils circulate fluid in the tank by convection, transferring heat to the cargo.

  6. ABS Steels - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ABS_Steels

    ABS Steels are types of structural steel which are standardized by the American Bureau of Shipping for use in shipbuilding. [1] ABS steels include many grades in ordinary-strength and two levels of higher-strength specifications. All of these steels have been engineered to be optimal long-lived shipbuilding steels.

  7. Stainless steel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stainless_steel

    Stainless steel, also known as inox, corrosion-resistant steel (CRES), or rustless steel, is an iron-based alloy containing a minimum level of chromium that is resistant to rusting and corrosion. Stainless steel's resistance to corrosion results from the 10.5% or more chromium content, which forms a passive film that can protect the material ...

  8. SAE steel grades - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SAE_steel_grades

    The SAE steel grades system is a standard alloy numbering system (SAE J1086 – Numbering Metals and Alloys) for steel grades maintained by SAE International. In the 1930s and 1940s, the American Iron and Steel Institute (AISI) and SAE were both involved in efforts to standardize such a numbering system for steels. These efforts were similar ...

  9. Shipping container - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shipping_container

    Shipping containers range from large reusable steel boxes used for intermodal shipments to the ubiquitous corrugated boxes. In the context of international shipping trade, "container" or "shipping container" is virtually synonymous with " intermodal freight container " (sometimes informally called a "sea can"), a container designed to be moved ...
