Under what circumstances should we use weathering steel?

In fact, we find that there are more and more decorative materials in daily life, and the decorative effect and characteristics of each material are not the same, the decorative effect is not the same, and now the latest material weathering steel is one of the most cost-effective decorative materials, because of the rust color material of his material, so he does not look very eye-catching, but because of the special material, His color collocation also gives people a visual impact, a style of modern ancient architecture, when we plan the phenomenon or the interior space, in the rough and delicate, cold and warm, soft and hard comparison combination, condensed into a rich planning context, presenting a kind of industrial and modern artistic beauty, cold surface and the surrounding environment integration, this material is often seen in the phenomenon. Its name is weathering steel.

Weather-resistant steel, because weather-resistant steel is more durable than ordinary carbon steel under outdoor conditions, it is often used in exposed steel structures. This requires continuous repainting and repainting of the steel. Examples include construction and bridge construction. The anti-rust coating slowed the corrosion rate enough for the amount of corrosion to be considered unsafe. For other reasons, the structure has outlived its design life. Weathering steel should not be used in some environments, first of all corrosion resistance can not meet these conditions. Weathering resistant steel should not be used in environments with a high chlorine content because the anti-rust layer cannot withstand the large amount of corrosive substances present in chlorine-rich environments. This can lead to premature failure. Weathering resistant steels should also not be used for applications that may cause electrochemical corrosion or corrosion due to extreme pH values.

Weathering steel is an alloy steel that, after several years of outdoor exposure, will form a relatively dense layer of rust on the surface, so it does not need paint protection. Different stainless steels will not rust at all, but weathering steel will only oxidize the surface and will not penetrate the interior. It has corrosion resistance properties such as copper or aluminum.
