AlloyC4

HuaNickel Alloy C4 superalloy is a metal material with iron, nickel and cobalt as the main components, which can work for a long time at high temperatures above 600°C and certain stress. It has high high temperature strength, good oxidation and corrosion resistance, good fatigue performance, fracture toughness and other comprehensive properties. Superalloys are single austenitic structures with good structural stability and reliability at various temperatures. Based on the above properties and high alloying degree, superalloys are also known as “superalloys” and are widely used in aviation, aerospace, petroleum, chemical industry, shipbuilding and other fields. According to the matrix elements, superalloys can be divided into iron-based, nickel-based, and cobalt-based superalloys.

Alloy C4 Alloy properties：

HuaNickel Alloy C4 alloy exhibits excellent stability at 650-104D°C, improving resistance to intergranular abrasion, avoiding edge erosion, hoe induction, and corrosion in the weld hot scene under proper manufacturing conditions.

Alloy C4 Uses of alloys：

It is mainly used for resistance to inorganic acids such as hydrochloric acid and sulfuric acid, organic acids such as formic acid, chlorine resistance and chlorine-containing media, dry chlorine, seawater, etc. Due to the good resistance of this alloy to intergranular corrosion, pitting corrosion and crevice corrosion, it is often used for local corrosion problems that cannot be solved by other stainless steels and some high-nickel corrosion-resistant alloys. This alloy can be used to make corrosion-resistant pipes, vessels, columns, tanks, reactors, heat exchangers, pumps, valves, etc.

Alloy C4 Process performance：

Welding process: HuaNickel Alloy C4 alloy is more suitable for use in the chemical industry and other industries in the welded state compared to the two Ni-Cr-Mo corrosion resistant alloys mentioned above. Alloy C4 alloy can be welded without any difficulty using common welding methods such as TIG, MIG, manual arc welding, etc. When submerged arc welding is used, care should be taken to prevent overheating, and carbon or silicon is not allowed in the solvent. Acetylene welding is not recommended for HuaNickel Alloy C4 alloys for corrosion-resistant applications.

Heat Treatment: Except as otherwise specified, Alloy C4 alloy is solution treated. This is the only way to make this alloy have the best corrosion resistance and the highest plasticity. The solution treatment temperature is 1040°C and then quenching.
