The Stainless Steel Composite Panel （SSCP) is a composite plate made of a carbon steel base combined with a stainless steel compositeding. Due to their excellent wear resistance, corrosion resistance and structural strength, composite panels of stainless steel are widely used in the construction industry, automotive industry and food processing industries. Hongfang Metal Composite Materials Company will bring you an in-depth understanding of stainless steel composite plate materials, processes, advantages and disadvantages, as well as application scenarios. You can also contact us directly if you are interested.
I.Understand the stainless steel composite plate
1. Definition of stainless steel composite plate
Stainless steel plastic composite plate is a composite material made by hot rolling, cold rolling, cutting or explosion welding of a layer of carbon steel and a layer of stainless steel plate (or other metal plates and stainless steel plates). Its main feature is the strong metallurgical bond between carbon steel and stainless steel. It has both structural and functional properties.
Its characteristics give stainless steel composite plate details a variety of properties such as high strength, good toughness, wear resistance and corrosion resistance. The outer layer of stainless steel ensures the strength, precision and durability of the material. The inner metal plate maintains toughness. It can be used in industrial fields such as petroleum, chemical industry, shipbuilding, electricity, water conservancy, transportation, environmental protection, food, and pharmaceuticals.
2. Process of Stainless Steel Composite Plate
a. Hot Rolling Process: High-Temperature Fusion for Corrosion Resistance
The hot rolling process involves fusing stainless steel structural plates with other materials at high temperatures, resulting in a composite material with excellent corrosion resistance and high density. In high temperature resistance and harsh working environments, this material will perform well.
b. Cold Rolling Process: Strengthening and Shaping
Unlike hot rolling, the cold rolling process is conducted at room temperature. The cold rolling process uses mechanical tools to change the structure of the plate, and then improves the density and strength of the plate.If you have a high demand for the precision of the sheet. Then you can consider processing with this process.
c. Cutting: Precision and Efficiency for Custom Designs
Do you have any requirements for the size of stainless steel composite panels with long life? Then you can choose the processing method of cutting. This method is very flexible to change the plate into the shape you want.Moreover, this method is simple to operate and can greatly improve efficiency.
d. Welding: Creating Large, Durable Structures
Welding can be done by heat treating multiple stainless steel sheet. If you need to build a large piece of equipment, this is the way to go! Moreover, welding can provide the strength and corrosion resistance of the material very well. It is a very good processing technology.
II. Advantages and Disadvantages of Stainless Steel Composite Plates
1. Advantages:
a. Durability and Service Life
Complete range grade stainless steel composite plates have high strength, so they have the characteristics of wear resistance and corrosion resistance. It can also withstand high temperatures and is not easy to deform. It can also last a long time. Stainless steel composite plate with long life will be your best choice.
b. Lightness
Compared to pure stainless steel, 316 stainless steel composite panels are lighter in weight and easier to transport and install. And because of its high strength, it does not bend during transportation. You won’t have to worry about them getting into an accident while they’re in transit.
c. Cost-Effective and Environmentally Friendly
The base material of 10~200mm stainless steel composite panels is carbon steel. We all know that carbon steel is an environmentally friendly material. Therefore, you don’t have to worry about environmental aspects. And it’s economical while maintaining high efficiency. If you want to order stainless steel clad plates, contact us now!
2. Disadvantages:
a. Maintenance Required
If you are going to use stainless steel Sandwich Panels in a chemical environment, then you need to do regular cleaning and maintenance. This is because chemicals can erode the board, causing it to rust.
b. High Processing Requirements
Earlier in the article, we introduced a variety of processing techniques for durable stainless steel composite panels. But if you are not skilled. It is possible that the temperature is not well controlled, which can lead to delamination of the panels. So remember to pay attention to the temperature control when processing.
c. Limited Use in Certain Conditions
If you have a need for heat transfer or anti-magnetic interference in the plate, stainless steel mental composite panels may not perform so well. But it’s still an efficient and economical option.
III. Application of Stainless Steel Composite Plates
1. Construction Industry
By reading the content earlier in the article, we know that stainless steel composite plate for wall decoration has high strength and corrosion resistance. So it would be a wise choice to use it in the construction industry. It can effectively resist harsh environments such as high temperature and acid rain. In addition, its durability also makes it long-lasting. So you can see it in many commercial buildings.
2. Automotive Industry
At the same time, in the automotive industry, you will often see the application of the most popular stainless steel plate. It can be used in the manufacture of automobile body structures. This will greatly improve the crash resistance of the car.
3. Food processing industry
Mirror finish stainless steel composite plate has a smooth surface, is easy to clean and wear-resistant. So it plays an important role in the manufacture of food equipment. It can be used in refrigeration equipment, storage rooms and other fields.
