Inconel 182: The Robust Solution for Corrosion and High-Temperature Applications

Inconel 182 is a high-temperature alloy welding material with excellent corrosion resistance and high-temperature performance, which is widely used in aerospace, petrochemical, nuclear industry and other fields. This article will introduce the definition of Inconel 182, chemical composition, production standards, performance, scope of application, processing and welding.

First, the definition and chemical composition of Inconel 182

Inconel 182 is a nickel-based alloy welding material, the main components are nickel, chromium, iron, molybdenum, titanium and so on. The specific chemical composition is as follows:

Nickel (Ni): 58-64 %
Chromium (Cr): 20-23%
Iron (Fe): 3-5%
Molybdenum (Mo): 8-10%
Titanium (Ti): 1.5-2.5 %
Other elements: less than 1%

II. Production standards of Inconel 182

Production standards for Inconel 182 include AWS A5.14 ERNiCr-3, ASME SFA 5.14 ERNiCr-3, etc. These standards specify the chemical composition of the alloy. These standards specify the chemical composition, mechanical properties, heat treatment process and other aspects of the alloy to ensure that the quality and performance of the alloy meets expectations.

Third, the performance of Inconel 182
