SS316 Clad Vessel vs SS316 Solid
SS316 Clad Vessel vs SS316 Solid
(OP)
Hi everyone,
Is it true that for SS316 cladded vessel, it could withstand higher/ more severe conditions (chloride, temp, etc) than solid SS316L vessel?
SCC generally requires tensile stress, appropriate corrosive species and material susceptible to SCC (this case austenitic). DOes cladding removed the tensile stress and always in compression mode hence the chance of SCC is low to none?
Thanks a lot.

Still plenty of opportunity for localized tensile stress.
What temp?
Chemical?
Temp cycling?
Pressure/thickness?

Differential thermal expansion between the stainless clad and the steel substrate causes significant interface shear stress all by itself.
