The Benefits of Using Nickel Alloys for Your Application
Nickel alloys are created by mixing nickel with other metals, such as titanium, copper, aluminum, iron, and chromium, in different proportions to obtain desired properties and characteristics. They offer many benefits, including:
Industrial Applications of Nickel Alloys
Primary industrial applications for nickel alloys include:
- Aerospace: Nickel-based superalloys can withstand extreme heat, making them an ideal solution for aircraft and engine components and turbines.
- Chemical & Petrochemical Processing: Nickel alloys containing molybdenum and chromium offer enhanced corrosion resistance for applications in chemical processing facilities.
- Energy & Power Generation: Nickel superalloys are often used in gas turbines, power generation turbines, nuclear power systems, and high-temperature applications requiring superior resistance to oxidation.
- Marine: Nickel alloyed with copper is used for components in ships and boats thanks to their resistance to saltwater corrosion.
- Plumbing & Wastewater Treatment Systems: Nickel alloys resist corrosion from wastewater and additives at high pressures. Nickel-based pipes are also easily joined and welded in pipeline systems.
Additional uses for nickel alloys are:
- Construction materials
- Cell phones and electronic devices
- Food processing equipment
- Laboratory equipment
- Medical equipment
- Pharmaceutical manufacturing
- Transportation equipment and vehicles
