[via Personal_Submersibles]

How does uper duplex stainless handle pitting? 316 when immersed in sea water developes micro pits that weaken the material over time.

It has high chromium and molybdenum content.  Excellent resistance to inorganic acids especially those containing chlorides.    I don't know of any submersible pressure hulls made of Super Duplex stainless steel.  It would be expensive.
