What is the ASTM equivalent of C22 material?
Superalloys contain a variety of elements in various combinations to achieve the desired effect. They have good creep and oxidation resistance. They come in different shapes and are used at very high temperatures and mechanical stresses, and where high surface stability is required. Cobalt-based, nickel-based, and iron-based alloys are three types of superalloys. All of these can be used at temperatures above 540°C (1000°F).
Hastelloy(r) C22(r) is a nickel-chromium-molybdenum alloy. It has high corrosion resistance and metallurgical stability. It does not sensitize during heating or welding. The following datasheet provides more detailed information about Hastelloy(r) C22(r).
