Chemical composition of stainless steel 316, SUS316, SS316, UNS S31600, S31603

Stainless steel 316 is a common stainless steel material, also labeled as SUS316, SS316, UNS S31600, and S31603. Its chemical composition includes the main elements: chromium (Cr) content is about 16-18%, nickel (Ni) content is about 10-14%, and molybdenum (Mo) content is about 2-3%. In addition, it also contains small amounts of elements such as carbon (C), manganese (Mn), silicon (Si), and phosphorus (P).

Specifically, the chemical composition of stainless steel 316 is as follows:
-Chromium (Cr): 16-18%
-Nickel (Ni): 10-14%
-Molybdenum (Mo): 2-3%
-Carbon (C): Maximum 0.08%
-Manganese (Mn): maximum 2.00%
-Silicon (Si): Maximum 0.75%
-Phosphorus (P): maximum 0.045%

These components endow stainless steel 316 with excellent corrosion resistance, especially in acidic environments. This material also has good mechanical properties and processing characteristics, and is commonly used in fields such as chemical engineering, food processing, medical equipment, etc. It is suitable for applications that require high corrosion resistance and high temperature resistance.
