1. Inconel 601 material introduction
Inconel 601 is a nickel-based alloy. It boasts outstanding oxidation resistance and carburization resistance, stable performance in sulfur-containing high-temperature atmospheres, and excellent mechanical properties at both room and elevated temperatures with good resistance to stress corrosion cracking. Controlled carbon content and grain size endow Inconel 601 high creep rupture strength, making it suitable for service temperatures above 500℃.
