Nickel alloys are alloys with nickel as principal element. Subcategories. This category has the following 3 subcategories, out of 3 total. A. Nickel–aluminium ...
Hiduminium or R.R. alloys (2% copper, iron, nickel): used in aircraft pistons; Hydronalium (up to 12% magnesium, 1% manganese): used in shipbuilding, resists seawater corrosion; Italma (3.5% magnesium, 0.3% manganese): formerly used to make coinage of the Italian lira; Magnalium (5-50% magnesium): used in airplane bodies, ladders, pyrotechnics ...
Monel is a group of alloys of nickel (from 52 to 68%) and copper, with small amounts of iron, manganese, carbon, and silicon. Monel is not a cupronickel alloy because it has less than 60% copper. Stronger than pure nickel, Monel alloys are resistant to corrosion by many aggressive agents, including rapidly flowing seawater .
Inconel is a nickel-chromium-based superalloy often utilized in extreme environments where components are subjected to high temperature, pressure or mechanical loads. Inconel alloys are oxidation- and corrosion-resistant. When heated, Inconel forms a thick, stable, passivating oxide layer protecting the surface from further attack.
Nickel titanium, also known as nitinol, is a metal alloy of nickel and titanium, where the two elements are present in roughly equal atomic percentages. Different alloys are named according to the weight percentage of nickel; e.g., nitinol 55 and nitinol 60 .
Alloys of nickel are the most common but includes iron aluminum alloys. [1] Applications include high temperature turbine blades and heat exchanger tubing, [2] while steels are used in nuclear applications. [3] ODS materials are used on spacecraft to protect the vehicle, especially during re-entry. Noble metal ODS alloys, for example, platinum ...
Inconel 625 was designed as a solid solution strengthened material with no significant microstructure. This holds true at low and high temperatures, but there is a region (923 to 1148 K) where precipitates form that are detrimental to the creep properties, and thus the strength, of the alloy.
In 300 series stainless steels the austenitic structure obtained primarily by adding nickel. In 200 series stainless steels the structure is obtained by adding manganese and nitrogen, with a small amount of nickel content, making 200 series a cost-effective nickel-chromium austenitic type stainless steel.
