This alloy has the following properties:

904L is a kind of austenitic stainless steel with low carbon content and high alloyed gold. The steel is designed for environments with severe corrosion conditions. As the carbon content of 904L is very low (0.020% at most), there will be no carbide precipitation under the condition of general heat treatment and welding. This eliminates the risk of intergranular corrosion after general heat treatment and welding. Because of the high content of Cr, Ni, Mo and the addition of Cu, 904L can be passivated even in reducing environment, such as sulfuric acid and formic acid. In the concentration range of 0 ~ 98%, the temperature of pure sulfuric acid can reach 40 ℃. In the concentration range of 0 ~ 85% pure phosphoric acid, its corrosion resistance is very good. In industrial phosphoric acid produced by wet process, impurities have a strong influence on corrosion resistance. Among all kinds of phosphoric acid, 904L is superior to ordinary stainless steel in corrosion resistance. In the strong oxidizing nitric acid, 904L has lower corrosion resistance than the high alloy steel without molybdenum. In hydrochloric acid, 904L is limited to a lower concentration of 1-2%. In this concentration range, 904L steel has high resistance to spot corrosion. In chloride solution, it has good resistance to crevice corrosion. Due to the high nickel content, 904L has high resistance to stress corrosion cracking in chloride solution, concentrated hydroxide solution and hydrogen sulfide rich environment

Metallographic structure:

904L is fully austenitic.
