Facade decoration

In modern architecture, stainless steel is often used for facade decoration, adding unique charm to the building. It has excellent weather resistance, can resist wind, sun, rain and snow erosion for a long time, and always maintain a lasting and beautiful appearance. For example, the curtain walls of some urban landmark buildings are made of stainless steel. After mirror or wire drawing treatment, they not only have a strong sense of modernity, but also reflect the surrounding scenery and integrate with the urban environment. Moreover, there are various surface treatment processes for stainless steel, such as electropolishing, which can enhance the compactness of oxide film and reduce micro defects; Passivation treatment uses nitric acid or citric acid to remove free iron on the surface, improve corrosion resistance, and further ensure the durability of facade decoration.

Structural member

Stainless steel structural parts play an important role in architecture because of their high strength characteristics. Compared with traditional building materials, the use of stainless steel structural parts can effectively reduce the weight of the building on the premise of ensuring the safety of the building. This is particularly important for some large-span buildings or high-rise buildings. Reducing the weight of the structure helps to reduce the cost of infrastructure construction and improve the seismic performance of buildings. For example, in the roof structure of some large stadiums, stainless steel truss is used, which not only realizes the columnless design of large space, but also ensures the stability of the structure. In addition, the corrosion resistance of stainless steel structural parts also makes it more advantageous in humid, coastal and other environments, extending the service life of the building.

Interior decoration

Stainless steel is also widely used in interior decoration. Its sanitary and easy to clean characteristics make it an ideal choice for interior decoration in public places. For example, the inner walls and handrails of elevators in hotels and shopping malls are often made of stainless steel, which is not only beautiful and generous, but also convenient for daily cleaning and maintenance, and can always maintain a clean appearance. In areas with high hygiene requirements such as kitchens and toilets, stainless steel sinks, shelves and other products are also popular. Moreover, stainless steel can be treated by different surface treatment processes, such as mechanical polishing to obtain a bright surface, sandblasting to obtain a matte surface, which can meet the needs of different interior design styles.

Building accessories

Stainless steel is also used to manufacture various building accessories, such as door and window hinges, handles, locks, etc. Although these accessories are small in size, they require high performance. The corrosion resistance of stainless steel ensures that these accessories will not rust and damage in the long-term use process, and ensures the normal opening and closing of doors and windows and the safe use. At the same time, its good mechanical properties make the accessories have enough strength and durability. Moreover, the appearance of stainless steel accessories is exquisite, which can be matched with doors and windows of different styles to enhance the overall beauty of the building.
