What Properties of Alloy 600 make it Suitable for chemical and food
processing
Alloy 600 Plate is designed with a superior concentration of nickel
and chromium, giving these modules enhanced corrosion resistance
properties. These high-strength modules have excellent resistance
against heat in high-temperature systems up to 2100 degrees F. This
coupled with their excellent performance in cryogenic temperatures,
makes them a good choice in the food and chemical processing
industry.
What is best Inconel 600 temperature range and its Density?
Inconel 600 Plate is a solution-hardened module designed for
optimum strength and performance. The Inconel 600 temperature range
starts from as low as sub-zero/cryogenic temperatures and goes as
1093 degrees C in different environments. Inconel 600 Density is
8.47 g/cc in metric weight.
Inconel 600 Vs 625
- Inconel 600 plate is designed with a chemical concentration of 72%
nickel with 14% chromium. A 625 Inconel grade is designed with a
chemical composition of 58% nickel, 23% chromium, and 10% of
molybdenum. The superior concentration gives the 625 grade higher
corrosion resistance properties.
- Inconel 625 plate possesses better strength compared to the 600
Inconel grade.
- The melting range of the 600 grade is higher than Inconel 625
components.
What is ASTM B168?
Usually, components such as plates, sheets, and strips produced
from nickel based alloys such as Alloy 600 are made in accordance
with ASTM B168. The products made under this particular
specification are to be first sampled and prepared, following which
they are to be tested for their conformance to not only their
chemistry requirements, but also their mechanical as well as their
dimensional requirements. In addition to this, the UNS No 6600
plates are also tested to check if they conform to their grain size
requirements
ASTM B168 covers the standard specification of
- Nickel- Chromium-Molybdenum-Copper Alloy of (UNS N06235) Sheet,
Plate, and Strip
- UNS NO6699 Nickel, chromium, and aluminum alloys
- Nickel- Chromium-Iron Alloys of UNS N06600, N06603, N06601, N06693,
N06690, N06045, N06025, and N06696)
