Alloy 20(Carpenter 20, UNS N08020) is a low-carbon, niobium stabilized with copper and molybdenum austenitic nickel-iron-chromium alloy.
This superalloy has excellent resistance to general corrosion, pitting, and crevice corrosion in chemicals containing chlorides and sulfuric, phosphoric, and nitric acids. It also contains niobium for stabilization against sensitization and resultant intergranular corrosion. At 33% nickel, Alloy 20 has practical immunity to chloride stress corrosion cracking. This alloy is often chosen to solve SCC(stress corrosion cracking) problems, which may occur with 316L stainless.
