A major limitation of stainless steel is that it is highly susceptible to chloride based localized attack like crevice, pitting and stress corrosion cracking. Hastelloy C276 is the most resistant nickel based super alloy to the chloride based localized corrosion that limits the applications of austenitic stainless steels. In various cases, stress corrosion cracking was … Continue reading How Nickel based super alloys are superior to traditional stainless steels
Nickel based alloy are one of the essential classes of engineering materials that are widely used in the various environments and applications. These materials are chosen for aqueous and high temperature corrosion resistance applications. Nickel base alloys are used at cryogenic temperatures and reaching 1200oC because the matrix of solid solution alloys remains austenitic from … Continue reading Hastelloy C276 for the most aggressive chemical operation conditions
The inclusion of chromium to nickel-molybdenum alloys while reducing the content of molybdenum enhancing their oxidation resistance, improving the durability of nickel-molybdneum alloys. Inconel 62 5 is a nickel-chromium-molybdenum alloy that has limited resistance to reducing acids whilst it offers good resistance to nitric and phosphoric acids and various chloride salts. It significantly prevents pitting, … Continue reading In which industrial applications Nickel-Chromium-Molybdenum alloys are used?
