NAS NW22; High Nickel Corrosion Resistant Alloy
Characteristics of NAS NW22
NAS NW22 is a Ni-Cr-Mo alloy with excellent pitting, crevice corrosion, and stress corrosion cracking resistance in both oxidizing and reducing atmospheres. Based on these features, NAS NW22 is widely used in materials under severe environments such as flue gas desulphurization apparatus, pulp and paper industry, and waste treatment plants.
