Selection <strong>of</strong> sta<strong>in</strong>less steels based on the corrosion resistance, fabrication<br />

characteristics, availability, mechanical properties <strong>in</strong> specific temperature ranges and<br />

product cost. However, corrosion resistance and mechanical properties are usually the<br />

most important factors <strong>in</strong> select<strong>in</strong>g a grade <strong>for</strong> a given application.<br />

Crystal structure <strong>of</strong> sta<strong>in</strong>less steel is face centered cubic (FCC) (Figure 2.4). The<br />

lattice parameters <strong>of</strong> sta<strong>in</strong>less steel are given <strong>in</strong> Table 2.6 and Table 2.7 shows some<br />

properties <strong>of</strong> sta<strong>in</strong>less steel.<br />
