Incoloy 800 is specifically designed for applications that require high creep rupture strength and corrosion resistance in a strongly acidic environment. Incoloy 800 also possesses the properties of high-temperature oxidation resistance and anti-carburization capability.
The super alloy Incoloy 825 is specifically designed to provide enhanced corrosion resistance in various environments. The titanium, copper and molybdenum added to Incoloy 825 can resist reducing and oxidizing acids, stress corrosion cracking, as well as localized corrosion such as pitting and crevice corrosion.
Incoloy superalloys are typically used in high-temperature applications where metals need to be able to withstand strong acidity and corrosive environments. The Incoloy alloy possesses the following beneficial qualities:
- High temperature strength
- Excellent corrosion resistance in acidic environments
- High creep rupture strength
- Good resistance to sulfur atmospheres.
Incoloy and Inconel belong to the same family of high-temperature alloys, but there are some minor differences between these two metals. The compositions of Incoloy and Inconel are slightly different, and they can be used in different types of applications. Inconel contains more than 50% nickel, which makes it more expensive than Incoloy metal, while Incoloy has a higher iron content and has a lower overall cost.
