P11, P22, P9 and P91 Material

All above materials, classified under Low Alloy High Strength Steels are know as
Chromium-Moly steels and have in common considerable amount of Chromium ( to
avoid oxidation at high temperature and corrosion) and Molybdenum ( to provide grain
refining, good creep resistance, and Tensile at high temperature) apart from C, Mn & Si.
They are meant for High temperature service like boiler tubes and used in Thermal and
petro-chemical units.

P11 has typical chemistry of 1 Cr & 1/2 Mo. Represents ASTM A 387Gr.B, A 182F2,F11, A 387 -11, A213-T2 & T11, Din steels 15CrMo3, A 335 Gr. P2 - P11 type materials
and used for Service Temp. up to 500 0C or so.

P22 has typical chemistry of 2 1/2 Cr & 1 Mo. Represents ASTM A 387 Gr. D, Din steels
like 10CrMo9,10 etc., and used for Service Temp. up to 600 0C or so

P91 has typical chemistry of 9 Cr & 1Mo & Vanadium. Represents SA 213 T91, SA335
P91, SA 336 F91, SA 234 WP01, SA 387 Gr. 01 Cl2, SA 369 FP91 etc. and used for Service
Temp. above 700 0C or so.
The major difference between P9 and 91 is the addition of element Vanadium in P91.
Apart from above we have C -0.5 Moly, 1 Mo - 0.5 Cr, 3Cr, 7Cr, 1Cr-0.5 Mo -0.5V type of
materials, used for various applications depending up on the service conditions.
All above are weld-able but, pre-heating - Post heat treatment, the range and cycle
depending upon the type of material selected.
