316N and 316LN are nitrogen-enhanced austenitic stainless steels based on 316 stainless steel. Nitrogen addition improves mechanical strength and corrosion resistance, especially in chloride-containing environments. 316LN has a lower carbon content, providing improved resistance to sensitization and intergranular corrosion after welding or prolonged high-temperature exposure. These grades are widely used in nuclear, chemical, marine, and high-pressure applications.
