Incoloy 825 is a nickel-iron-chromium alloy containing molybdenum, copper, and titanium. Designed to deliver exceptional resistance to various corrosive environments. The nickel content provides sufficient protection against chloride-induced stress corrosion cracking. The combination of nickel with molybdenum and copper also offers outstanding resistance to reducing environments such as those containing sulfuric acid and phosphoric acid. Molybdenum further helps resist pitting and crevice corrosion. The chromium content in this alloy confers resistance to various oxidizing substances including nitric acid, nitrates, and oxidized salts. The titanium addition, when properly heat-treated, stabilizes the alloy and prevents intergranular corrosion sensitivity.
Incoloy825 metallographic structure: Incoloy825 alloy has a stable face-centered cubic structure. The chemical composition and proper heat treatment ensure that the corrosion resistance is not weakened by sensitization.
Incoloy825 corrosion resistance:
1.Incoloy825 is a general engineering alloy with acid and alkali metal corrosion resistance in both oxidizing and reducing environments.
2.The high nickel content makes the alloy have effective resistance to stress corrosion cracking.
3.It is very good in corrosion resistance in various media, such as sulfuric acid, phosphoric acid, nitric acid and organic acids, alkali metals such as sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide and hydrochloric acid solution.
4.Incoloy825’s higher overall performance is demonstrated in nuclear combustion dissolvers with a variety of corrosive media, such as sulfuric acid, nitric acid and sodium hydroxide being treated in the same equipment.
