What is High-temperature alloy
High-temperature alloy refers to a type of metal material based on iron, nickel and cobalt, which can work for a long time at high temperature above 600℃ and under certain stress. They have excellent high temperature strength, oxidation resistance, thermal corrosion resistance, good fatigue performance and fracture toughness, so they are also called “Superalloy”.
Performance characteristics of High-temperature alloy
- Excellent high temperature performance: able to maintain high strength and good mechanical properties at high temperature.
- Good oxidation resistance and corrosion resistance: excellent performance in high temperature oxidation and corrosion environment.
- High reliability and long life: can maintain stable performance under extreme conditions and extend the service life of equipment.
- Good fatigue performance and fracture toughness: excellent performance under cyclic load and impact load.
