Weathering steel will be widely used in photovoltaics
Weathering steel is atmospheric corrosion-resistant steel. It is a low-alloy steel series between ordinary steel and stainless steel. Weathering steel is smelted from ordinary carbon steel with a small amount of copper, nickel and other corrosion-resistant elements added. It has the characteristics of high-quality steel such as strength, plasticity, shaping, welding and cutting, abrasion, high temperature, and fatigue resistance; the principle of "stopping rust with rust" The weather resistance of weather-resistant steel is 2 to 8 times that of ordinary carbon steel, and the longer it is used, the more outstanding its corrosion resistance.
Due to its excellent corrosion resistance, weathering steel is widely used in steel structures such as railways, vehicles, and bridges that are exposed to the atmosphere for a long time. Today, weathering steel is gradually used in the photovoltaic field. It can be said that the application of weathering steel in the photovoltaic industry is the application of traditional materials in emerging industries.
