MATERIAL DESCRIPTION, MAIN CHARACTERISTICS

The Nicorros - alloy 400 is a nickel-copper alloy with high strength and toughness over a wide temperature range. This alloy has an excellent resistance to flowing seawater, a good resistance to hydrofluoric acid, non-oxidizing dilute acid, alkalis and salt solutions, organic acids dry gases such as chlorine and to hydrogen chloride. It's not susceptible to chloride-induced stress-corrosion cracking.
Pressure vessel regulations permits this materials to be used at temperatures up to approx 425°C (800°F).
