CF8M corrosion resistant alloy : composition, applications, properties and weldability

DESCRIPTION

CF-8M is a molybdenum bearing modification of of CF8 alloy and is the cast equivalent of wrought AISI 316 stainless steel. The presence of molybdenum increases the general corrosion resistance and the resistance to pitting by chlorides. The alloy is used in mildly acidic and alkaline conditions and for handling citric, oxalic and phosphoric acids.
