What is the difference between nickel200 and nickel201?
Nickel 200 and Nickel 201 are both pure nickel alloys, which have good mechanical properties and corrosion resistance. Specifically:
In terms of composition, Nickel 201 is a low-carbon variety of pure nickel with low carbon content. This allows Nickel 201 to reduce its strength and work hardening rate and increase its ductility at temperatures above 300°C (572°F). Such characteristics make Nickel 201 particularly suitable for applications requiring cold forming operations. Nickel 200 does not place special emphasis on low carbon content, so its performance at high temperatures may be different from Nickel 201.
In general, although Nickel 200 and Nickel 201 are both pure nickel alloys, they have differences in composition, especially carbon content, which leads to differences in their high temperature performance and processing characteristics. When selecting materials, the decision on which alloy to use needs to be based on the specific application needs.
