About the product
INCONEL 600 (UNS N06600)
A nickel-chromium alloy with good oxidation resistance at higher temperatures. With good resistance in carburizing and chloride containing environments.
Alloy 600 is a nickel-chromium alloy designed for use from cryogenic to elevated temperatures in the range of 2000 deg F(1093 deg C). The high nickel content of the alloy enables it to retain considerable resistance under reducing conditions and makes it resistant to corrosion by a number of organic and inorganic compounds. The nickel content gives it excellent resistance to chloride-ion stress-corrosion cracking and also provides excellent resistance to alkaline solutions.
Its chromium content gives the alloy resistance to sulfur compounds and various oxidizing environments. The chromium content of the alloy makes it superior to commercially pure nickel under oxidizing conditions. In strong oxidizing solutions like hot, concentrated nitric acid, 600 has poor resistance. Alloy 600 is relatively un-attacked by the majority of neutral and alkaline salt solutions and is used in some caustic environments. The alloy resists steam and mixtures of steam, air and carbon dioxide.
Applications
• Thermocouple sheaths.
• Ethylene dichloride (EDC) cracking tubes.
• Conversion of uranium dioxide to tetrafluoride in contact with hydrofluoric acid.
• Production of caustic alkalis particularly in the presence of sulfur compounds.
• Reactor vessels and heat exchanger tubing .
• Furnace retort seals, fans and fixtures.
• Roller hearths and radiant tubes, in carbon nitriding processes especially.
