Avesta 254SMO (UNS S31254) has been extensively applied in paper mill bleach plants in Scandinavia. A review of twenty installations in operating mills indicates that S31254 has performed well as a remedy to corrosion problems of 316L, 317L, and 904L. S31254 is now regularly used in the construction of major bleach plant components. Corrosion performance has been good for periods now extending beyond eight years.
