About Inconel
Inconel is a family of austenitic nickel-chromium-based superalloys.
Inconel alloys are resistant to oxidation and have the ability to maintain their structural integrity in high-temperature atmospheres. There are several Inconel alloys that are used in applications that require material properties that do not easily succumb to caustic corrosion, corrosion caused by high-purity water, and stress-corrosion cracking. While each variation of Inconel has unique traits that make it effective in different circumstances, the majority of the alloys are used frequently in the chemical industry.
Stanford Advanced Materials (SAM) can customize Inconel with specific chemical compositions and geometric sizes, including Inconel 600 (UNS N06600), Inconel 601 (UNS N06601), Inconel 625 (UNS N06625), Inconel 718 (UNS N07718).
