ASME SB-575 UNS N06200 (HASTELLOY C2000) Plate, Sheet, and Strip

Corrosion Performance 

The nickel-chromium-molybdenum (Ni-Cr-Mo) C-type alloys have a long history of use in the Chemical Process Industries and are known for their versatility. Not only do they resist all acids (especially hydrochloric, sulfuric, and hydrofluoric) over large temperature ranges, but they also resist the insidious types of attack induced by chlorides and other halide solutions, specifically pitting, crevice attack, and stress corrosion cracking. The technical objective during the design of  C-2000 alloy was even greater versatility, as compared with the traditional Ni-Cr-Mo alloys. This was accomplished by use of a high chromium content (23 wt.%), a high molybdenum content (16 wt.%), and a small but effective addition of copper (1.6 wt.%). The copper was found to provide enhanced temperature capability in sulfuric acid, hydrofluoric acid, and dilute hydrochloric acid. Product Forms C-2000 alloy is available in plate, sheet, strip, billet, bar, wire, covered electrodes, pipe, and tubing. Applications • Chemical process industry reactors, heat exchangers, columns, and piping. • Pharmaceutical industry reactors and dryers. • Flue gas desulfurization systems。

Field Test Program Samples of C-2000 alloy are available for field trials. Furthermore, samples can be weighed prior to delivery, and then reweighed after test by the customer, and reports provided on corrosion rates and other observations. For samples, please contact one of the Haynes International Service Centers listed on the back cover of this brochure.
