Material Description
Product Overview
The 316LN stainless steel plate is a low carbon, nitrogen-enhanced alloy designed for high-performance applications in environments exposed to high temperatures and corrosive conditions. This material is ideal for industries demanding resistance to both heat and corrosion, including chemical processing, power generation, and marine applications.
Production Standards
316LN stainless steel plates are manufactured to the highest quality standards including:
- ASTM A240 - Standard Specification for Chromium and Chromium-Nickel Stainless Steel Plate, Sheet, and Strip for Pressure Vessels and General Industrial Applications
- ASME SA240 - American Society of Mechanical Engineers version for pressure vessel fabrication
- EN 10088-2 - European standard for stainless steel
Chemical Composition
Typical chemical composition (percentage):
- Chromium (Cr): 16.0 - 18.0%
- Nickel (Ni): 10.0 - 14.0%
- Molybdenum (Mo): 2.0 - 3.0%
- Carbon (C): ≤0.03%
- Nitrogen (N): 0.10 - 0.20%
- Manganese (Mn): ≤2.0%
- Silicon (Si): ≤1.0%
- Phosphorus (P): ≤0.045%
- Sulfur (S): ≤0.030%
The key differentiator for 316LN is the addition of nitrogen, which enhances strength and pitting resistance in chloride-rich environments while reducing carbon content to improve resistance to carbide precipitation during welding.
Mechanical Properties
316LN stainless steel offers exceptional toughness and corrosion resistance:
- Tensile Strength: 520 - 700 MPa
- Yield Strength: 240 - 290 MPa
- Elongation at Break: ≥40%
- Hardness: HRB 80 max
- Modulus of Elasticity: 200 GPa
- Density: 8.0 g/cm³
Differences Between 316LN and 316L
Key distinctions between these austenitic stainless steels:
- Carbon Content: 316LN has even lower carbon content than 316L (≤0.03%) with higher nitrogen content for enhanced mechanical properties
- Nitrogen Content: 316LN contains 0.10 - 0.20% nitrogen for increased strength and corrosion resistance
- Strength: 316LN is generally stronger than 316L, making it more suitable for structural applications under stress
Similar Grades
Related alloys include:
- 316L - Standard low-carbon version
- 317LN - Higher molybdenum content for enhanced corrosion resistance
- Alloy 904L - Super austenitic stainless steel with superior chloride resistance
Applications
Ideal for demanding applications across multiple industries:
- Chemical Processing Equipment - Reactors, heat exchangers, and storage tanks
- Power Generation - Components exposed to high temperatures and corrosive atmospheres
- Marine Environments - Ships, offshore platforms, and coastal infrastructure
- Pharmaceutical and Food Processing - Equipment requiring high cleanliness and corrosion resistance
- Aerospace - Parts experiencing elevated temperatures and corrosive environments
Conclusion
ASTM A240 Alloy 316LN Stainless Steel Plate is a high-performance material engineered for high-temperature and corrosion-resistant applications. Its combination of enhanced nitrogen content, low carbon, and excellent mechanical properties makes it superior for critical environments, providing reliable performance in the most demanding conditions across industrial, marine, and power generation applications.
