In addition, chemical compatibility refers to the container material being acceptable to store the chemical or for a tool or object that comes in contact with a chemical to not degrade. For example, when stirring a chemical, the stirrer must be stable in the chemical that is being stirred. Many companies publish chemical resistance charts.
For instance, olivine (an abundant mineral in the upper mantle) has the chemical formula (Mg,Fe) 2 SiO 4. Nickel, with very similar chemical behaviour to iron and magnesium, substitutes readily for them and hence is very compatible in the mantle. Compatibility controls the partitioning of different elements during melting.
Oxygen compatibility is the issue of compatibility of materials for service in high concentrations of oxygen. It is a critical issue in space, aircraft, medical ...
AL-6XN (UNS designation N08367) is a type of weldable stainless steel that consist of an alloy of nickel (24%), chromium (22%) and molybdenum (6.3%) with other trace elements such as nitrogen. The high nickel and molybdenum contents of the AL-6XN alloy give it good resistance to chloride stress- corrosion cracking.
Nitinol biocompatibility is an important factor in biomedical applications.Nitinol (NiTi), which is formed by alloying nickel and titanium (~ 50% Ni), is a shape-memory alloy with superelastic properties more similar to that of bone, [clarification needed] when compared to stainless steel, another commonly used biomaterial.
Addition of small amount of nickel increases its fluidity; the highest increase occurs at 0.06% Ni. Such alloys are known as nickel modified or nickel stabilized. [81] Sn 97 Cu 3: 227 232: 250 [82] 332 [52] Yes: For high-temperature uses. Allows removing insulation from an enameled wire and applying solder coating in a single operation.
Nickel is preeminently an alloy metal, and its chief use is in nickel steels and nickel cast irons, in which it typically increases the tensile strength, toughness, and elastic limit. It is widely used in many other alloys, including nickel brasses and bronzes and alloys with copper, chromium, aluminium, lead, cobalt, silver, and gold ( Inconel ...
Nickel(II) oxide is the chemical compound with the formula NiO. It is the principal oxide of nickel. [4] It is classified as a basic metal oxide. Several million kilograms are produced annually of varying quality, mainly as an intermediate in the production of nickel alloys. [5] The mineralogical form of NiO, bunsenite, is very rare.
