Incoloy alloy 901 UNS N09901/W.Nr.2.4662 bar pipe, strip, bolt

Overview

Incoloy alloy 901(UNS N09901/W.Nr. 2.4662) is an age-hardenable Ni-Fe-Cr superalloy with significant additions of molybdenum, titanium and aluminum. The alloying route for this highperformance material may include combinations of vacuum induction melting, vacuum arc remelting and electroslag remelting, according to the final application and the customer’s specification. Typically, the alloy is used for gas turbine engine discs, shafts, rings, casings and seals with a maximum service temperature of around 600°C (1100°F).

Corrosion Resistance

Incoloy alloy 901 is resistant to a range of acidic media such as sulfuric acid, hydrochloric acid and nitric acid. In addition, it can also resist the corrosion of oxidizing media such as chloride and fluoride. This makes Incoloy alloy 901 widely used in chemical, petroleum, Marine and food processing.The high nickel content and high chromium content in this alloy provide good corrosion resistance. At the same time, aluminum, titanium and other elements in the alloy also play a role in enhancing corrosion resistance.

The corrosion resistance mechanism of Incoloy alloy 901 consists mainly of passivation and formation of oxide film. In the corrosive medium, a dense oxide film is formed on the surface of the alloy, which can effectively prevent the contact between the corrosive medium and the matrix, thus improving the corrosion resistance of the alloy.
