Hastelloy Alloy X Spherical Powder

Applications

Aerospace and Gas Turbines

Jet Engines and Turbine Blades: Hastelloy® X is widely used in gas turbines and jet engines, where high temperatures, oxidizing environments, and mechanical stresses are common. Its high-temperature strength, oxidation resistance, and thermal fatigue resistance make it ideal for turbine blades, combustion chambers, and exhaust systems.

Rocket Engine Components: The alloy’s performance under extreme thermal conditions makes it suitable for components in rocket engines, such as nozzles and combustion liners, where both high-temperature stability and resistance to corrosion are critical.

Power Generation

Gas Turbines in Power Plants: Hastelloy® X is used in the gas turbine industry for components such as rotor blades, heat exchangers, and combustion liners in power plants. The alloy’s high creep resistance and corrosion resistance ensure durability in environments where turbines operate at high temperatures and in contact with aggressive gases.

Steam Turbines: It is also used in steam turbines for power generation, where its resistance to high-pressure steam and corrosion makes it ideal for high-temperature sections of the turbines.

Chemical and Process Industries

Chemical Process Equipment: Hastelloy® X is resistant to a wide range of aggressive chemicals, including sulfuric acid and phosphoric acid, making it useful in chemical reactors, heat exchangers, vessels, and pipes in industries such as petrochemical refining, fertilizer production, and pharmaceutical manufacturing.

Heat Exchangers: Due to its corrosion resistance at high temperatures, Hastelloy® X is often used in heat exchangers that process hot gases, chemicals, and liquids under extreme conditions.

Additive Manufacturing (3D Printing)

3D Printing of High-Performance Parts: The spherical powder form of Hastelloy® X is perfectly suited for metal additive manufacturing, especially in processes like Selective Laser Melting (SLM) and Electron Beam Melting (EBM). .
