Monel Alloy
Monel Alloy Series
Monel is a distinguished group of high-performance alloys primarily composed of nickel (ranging from 52 to 67%) and copper, with trace amounts of iron, manganese, carbon, and silicon. Notably distinct from cupronickel alloys, Monel boasts less than 60% copper. Renowned for being stronger than pure nickel, Monel alloys offer exceptional resistance to corrosion by a myriad of aggressive agents, including the relentless force of rapidly flowing seawater. Their adaptability is unmatched, as they can be easily crafted through hot- and cold-working techniques, machining, and welding.
This remarkable product finds extensive applicability within the chemical processing industry, as well as in hot seawater and hydrometallurgy plants. It is predominantly employed in environments requiring the handling of hot sulfuric acid, chloride-laden solutions, sulfite acid, and more. It serves as an ideal material for environmental heat exchangers, pipes, valves, and pumps. Additionally, the paper-making industry benefits from its use in wood pulp diffuse separators and deep source gas wells.
