Demand and Prospects of Stainless Steel Products in Shipbuilding Industry

Stainless steel is used in the construction of ordinary cargo ships.The main materials are salt and acid-resistant piping, including pumps and valves, as well as some ship decorations and fittings, but due to engineering and cost considerations, the use of stainless steel in the ship industry is low.The demand for stainless steel materials has increased significantly as the global shipping industry has grown fast, especially in chemical vessels and in the installation of desulfurization towers.

With the fast development of petrochemical industry, the liquid-goods shipping trade.It is easy to maintain continuous activity and will maintain relatively steady growth in the segmented market for chemical vessels.At the same time, the chemical ship construction market is also developing into large-scale and liquid cargo tank with the development of materials and the improvement of construction technology.

We believe that as the world becomes greener, there will be more power-driven new ships such as hydrogen, ammonia, methanol (2943, -19.00, -0.64 percent) and more stainless steel or stainless steel alloy materials will be used to improve corrosion resistance and reduce weight carrying capacity.Therefore, the development of stainless steel materials in shipbuilding will be promising.
