Nickel alloys resist high-temperature corrosion; This article describes the oxidation and carburization resistance of nickel alloys. It is from a chapter titled "corrosion of nickel and nickel-base alloys," from the revised edition of the ASM Handbook Vol. 13B, corrosion: materials.

Nickel alloys are industrially important for their resistance to certain types of high-temperature corrosion. For example, they have outstanding resistance to oxidation, and they are generally superior to iron-base and cobalt-base alloys in this mode of attack (Fig. 1). They have low solubility for interstitial atoms, which makes them inherently more resistant to carburization and nitridation attack than other alloys.
