Heat resistant steels and alloys

Technical Characteristics

The main properties that distinguish heat-resistant grades from other alloys are their high resistance to creep and long-term strength. It is these qualities show how long the products are able to work in conditions of exposure to elevated temperatures. The most common in use is heat-resistant steel, where the main element is chromium. Also heat-resistant steel differs in the type of hardening, the method of alloying, and the number of elements. «Auremo» is a profitable supplier in the heat-resistant segment.

Production

Nickel-based alloys obtain enhanced heat resistance not only through multicomponent alloying, but also through subsequent heat treatment. Highly alloyed steels contain more than 10% of alloying elements. For example the alloy 20Х20Н14С2 has in its composition 12−15% nickel and 19−22% chromium. Manganese up to 1.5%, copper 0.3%, silicon 2−3%, carbon and titanium 0.2%, sulfur, and phosphorus are added to the blend as additives.

Applications

Unparalleled properties possessed by heat-resistant alloys have become one of the main reasons for their successful use in various fields of human activity. Jet technology would be unthinkable without special high-temperature alloys for gas turbine engines… Modern automotive engineering would be unthinkable without these high-temperature alloys. Chemical reactors, tanks, boilers and crucibles with high corrosion resistance are made of such alloys. Heat-resistant materials play the most important role not only in the structures of gas turbine engines, but also in the structures of nuclear boilers. Heat-resistant cladding is used to protect uranium rods from corrosion in nuclear reactors.
