316 stainless steel is a popular alloy that contains molybdenum. Unlike the most common stainless steel, 304 steel, it is more resistant to chlorides and other acids. This makes it ideal for outdoor applications in marine environments or applications that may be exposed to chlorides. Its main alloying components after iron are chromium (16-18%), nickel (10-12%) and molybdenum (2-3%), with small amounts (<1%) of silicon, phosphorus and sulfur. Localized corrosion attack in chlorides and general corrosion in reducing acids (such as sulfuric acid. It is used in building shells, doors, windows and armatures, offshore modules, reservoirs and pipes of chemical tankers, production of chemicals, warehousing and road transport , food and beverages, pharmaceuticals, synthetic fibers, paper and textile mills, and pressure vessels. Due to the low C content, resistance to intergranular corrosion is also guaranteed under welding conditions.
