Nickel-chromium-iron alloy resists corrosion at high heat.(Metals)

A nickel-chromium-iron alloy developed by ThyssenKrupp VDM, Germany, was described in a presentation titled "602CA Alloy--An Alloy for the Hottest Service Applications," at the ASM Materials Solutions 2003 conference in October. The alloy was discussed by Larry Paul of ThyssenKrupp VDM USA, Tipton, Ind.; and Timothy Carney, Rolled Alloys, Temperance, Mich. The 602CA alloy, also known as Nicrofer 6025HT, is a high-carbon nickel-chromium-iron alloy with additions of the micro-alloying elements titanium and zirconium, together with aluminum and yttrium. It is normally ...
