Hastelloy C-22
2.4602Improved version of Hastelloy C-276 with better resistance to oxidizing media and higher chromium. Considered the most versatile Ni-Cr-Mo alloy for chemical processing. Resists both oxidizing and reducing acids, chlorides, and mixed media. Used for flue gas desulfurization, pharmaceutical, and universal chemical processing.
Nimonic 80A
2.4952Nickel-chromium age-hardenable alloy with Ti + Al for gamma-prime strengthening. Developed originally for gas turbine blades. Good creep resistance to ~700°C. Used for exhaust valves, springs at elevated temperatures, nuclear engineering fasteners, and gas turbine components. ≈ UNS N07080.
Haynes 230
2.4733Nickel-chromium-tungsten alloy — THE combustor can material for gas turbines. Outstanding oxidation resistance to 1149°C for prolonged exposure. Excellent long-term thermal stability (no sigma/mu phase after 16000h at 649-870°C). Lower thermal expansion than most high-temp alloys. Lanthanum addition improves oxide scale adherence. Used for gas turbine combustion cans, transition ducts, furnace retorts, and catalyst grids in nitric acid production.
