Hastelloy B2 is a solid solution strengthened, nickel-molybdenum alloy typically used in extreme reducing conditions. Hastelloy B2 has significantly lower carbon, silicon and iron compared to the predecessor, alloy B (UNS N10001). Compared to alloy B, Hastelloy B2 is less susceptible to weld zone corrosion in the as-welded condition.

What is Hastelloy?Hastelloy is a term used to describe nickel metal that has been alloyed to increase corrosion resistance. This is primarily done through the addition of molybdenum and chromium. There are many grades of Hastelloy, with each grade having a different chemical makeup to be optimized f

Inconel 600 is a nickel-chromium alloy with excellent resistance to organic acids and is used extensively in fatty acid processing. The high nickel content of Inconel 600 provides good resistance to corrosion under reducing conditions, and its chromium content, resistance under oxidizing conditions. The alloy is virtually immune to chloride stress-corrosion cracking. It is also employed widely in the production and handling of caustic soda and alkali chemicals. Alloy 600 is also an excellent material for high-temperature applications requiring a combination of heat and corrosion resistance. The excellent performance of the alloy in hot halogen environments makes it a popular choice for organic chlorination processes. Alloy 600 also resists oxidation, carburization, and nitridation.

Inconel 625 alloy is a non-magnetic, corrosion-resistant and oxidation-resistant Ni-Cr alloy. The high strength of Inconel 625 is due to the hardening of molybdenum and niobium on the Ni-Cr matrix of the alloy. Inconel 625 is highly resistant to a variety of abnormally severe corrosive environments, including high temperature effects (such as oxidation and Carburizing), including corrosion.

A metal alloy is a substance that combines more than one metal or mixes a metal with other non-metallic elements. For example, brass is an alloy of two metals: copper and zinc. Steel is an alloy of a metallic element (iron) and a small amount — up to 2% — of a non-metallic element (carbon). When compared to metals, alloys differ in their properties and characteristics, such as composition, applications, how they're made, and cost.
