HEBEI MAISHI is a professional stainless steel mesh manufacturer in China. In some circumstances, the stainless steel may also rust. Here we will discuss about the reasons:
1. The surface of the stainless steel mesh has deposits of dust or other metal particles containing other metal elements.
In humid air, the condensation between the deposits and the stainless steel connects the two into a microbattery, which triggers an electrochemical reaction. The protective film is damaged, which is called electrochemical corrosion.
2. Organic matter juices (such as vegetables, noodle soup, sputum, etc.) adhere to the surface of stainless steel.
In the presence of water and oxygen, they form organic acids. After a long time, the organic acids corrode the metal surface.
3. The surface of the stainless steel mesh contains acids, alkali, and salts (such as alkaline water and lime water splashing from the wall), which may cause point corrosion.
4. In contaminated air (such as an atmosphere containing a amount of sulfide, carbon oxide, and nitrogen oxide), when the wire mesh meets condensed water, it forms sulfuric acid, nitric acid, and acetic acid, then causing chemical corrosion.
The method of removing the rust on the stainless steel mesh:
1. The decorative stainless steel surface must be cleaned and scrubbed frequently to remove attachments and eliminate external factors that cause modification.
2. 316 stainless steel should be used in seaside areas. 316 can resist seawater corrosion.
3. Some stainless steel wire mesh on the market cannot meet the national standards and cannot meet the requirements of 304 material. So should choose the reliable mesh supplier.
