2205 stainless steel is a kind of stainless steel in which ferrite phase and austenite phase coexist, and it is also a kind of steel with excellent corrosion resistance, high strength and easy processing and manufacturing. Because the price of stainless steel is influenced by many factors, the price will fluctuate constantly.
Influencing factors of 2205 stainless steel price;
1, economic cycle,
Iron and steel industry is the basic industry of national economy. The periodic fluctuation of the national economy is an objective economic law, and the steel industry is one of the industries most closely related to the economic cycle. It can be said that the stainless steel market fluctuates with macroeconomic fluctuations.
2. Cost of raw materials,
The price of stainless steel products has a strong correlation with the price of raw materials (mainly nickel and chromium), and the product price fluctuates with the change of raw material prices. Nickel is mainly used in stainless steel production, and its consumption is mainly driven by stainless steel production.
3. Market supply and demand,
With the sharp increase of stainless steel production in Asia, the current stainless steel market has begun to show signs of relative oversupply, which has brought pressure on stainless steel prices. With the development of economy and the improvement of living standards, as well as the requirements for the appearance and service life of steel, the application of stainless steel will be more and more extensive, and the increase in demand for stainless steel will support the price of stainless steel for a long time.
Precautions:
1, scientific and technological progress may lead to the emergence of new alternative materials, thus reducing the demand for stainless steel and its market price, but there is no new metal material that can completely replace stainless steel.
2. Scientific and technological progress will improve the function and performance of products to a certain extent, broaden the application fields of stainless steel, stimulate the market demand of stainless steel products and raise the market price.
