In this post I'll talk about and give details about ASTM A353. First let's describe it and then have a look at its material's properties.
Ok let's start with ASTM A353 chemical composition.
Learn more about chemical composition.
Now it's the mechanical properties turn:
Learn more about what is yield strength.
Learn more about what is tensile strength.
Learn more about what is elongation.
Learn more about reduction of area.
Learn more about impact testing (charpy v notch).
Other properties:
Learn more about the what is allowable stress.
I ranked materials according to their yield strengths and ASTM A353 currently ranks 26 in my yield strength index. This means there are other 25 materials that are more resistant.
Note: I've analysed 134 materials in order to create an yield strength index. Check my astm material's comparison post for more details.
What is the difference between Code, Standard & Specification?

What is ASTM A353?
ASTM A353 is a Specification for Pressure Vessel Plates, Alloy Steel, Double-Normalized and Tempered 9% Nickel.Category
Steel Plates, Sheets, and Strip for Pressure VesselsScope
This specification covers double-normalized and tempered 9% nickel steel plates intended particularly for welded pressure vessels for cryogenic service.Ok let's start with ASTM A353 chemical composition.

Impact Requirements
To be made at -195°C and according to A20
Learn more about impact testing (charpy v notch).
Other properties:
Allowable Stress
Depends on the project (And its factor of safety).Learn more about the what is allowable stress.
My Material's Rank
While engineers will often look for the cheapest material they can use, I took a different approach to material's selection to help newbie students.I ranked materials according to their yield strengths and ASTM A353 currently ranks 26 in my yield strength index. This means there are other 25 materials that are more resistant.
Note: I've analysed 134 materials in order to create an yield strength index. Check my astm material's comparison post for more details.
