Stainless steel plates are widely used in our daily lives, including decoration, outdoor landscape engineering, pulp and paper equipment, heat exchangers, mechanical and electrical equipment, dyeing and testing equipment, film processing equipment, pipelines, and exterior building materials for coastal cities.

Taking stainless steel decorative panels as an example, the commonly used models are 201 and 304; The corrosion resistance and rust resistance of 304 stainless steel decorative panel are better than those of 201 stainless steel decorative panel.

201 stainless steel decorative panels are commonly used in dry areas or areas with lower indoor quality requirements due to their poor corrosion resistance. 304 stainless steel decorative panels have good corrosion resistance and can be widely used in the processing of kitchen utensils and other food processing products. It is commonly used in humid southern regions or outdoor areas with high quality requirements.

304 stainless steel decorative panel has strong performance, good quality, wide application range, and much higher price than 201 material.

201 and 304 stainless steel plates can be identified by naked eye and hand touch. 304 stainless steel has a good luster and luster when seen with the naked eye, and is smooth to touch with the hand; 201 stainless steel has a dull color and no luster, and feels rough and uneven when touched. In addition, wet your hands with water and touch two types of stainless steel plates separately. After touching, the water stains and fingerprints on the 304 plate are relatively easy to erase, while the 201 plate is not easy to erase.

Additionally, apply stainless steel pickling paste to both types of stainless steel plates separately. After 2 minutes, observe the color change of the stainless steel at the applied area. The color that turns black is 201, and the color that turns white or does not change is 304.

Stainless steel plates can also be surface treated with various decorative patterns and colors, such as hair patterns, snowflake sand patterns, mixed patterns (random patterns), cross patterns, cross patterns, etc; Colored stainless steel plates in various colors such as titanium black (black titanium), sky blue, titanium gold, coffee, tea, purple red, bronze, rose gold, titanium white, emerald green, champagne gold, bronze, pink, etc

At present, commonly used decorative engineering materials include mirror stainless steel plates, sandblasted stainless steel plates, fingerprint resistant stainless steel plates, frosted stainless steel plates, brushed stainless steel plates, wood grain stainless steel plates, and so on
