A nickel based alloy is a primarily an alloy whose chief constituent is nickel. Nickel based alloys are of vital importance importance to industry due to their ability to withstand a variety of severe operating conditions that involves high stresses, corrosive environment, high temperatures and other combinations thereof. Nickel based alloys act as the best defense against abrasion, corrosion along with high temperatures. Nickel based alloys have been known to extendi the service life of machinery for more than 50 years.
Application of Nickel Based Alloys
Nickel based alloys have diverse applications, most of which are due to its excellent resistance to corrosion and/ or heat. Some of the typical examples include the following:
