GH136 Alloy is a high-performance nickel-based superalloy engineered for superior strength and oxidation resistance at elevated temperatures. This alloy is designed to perform reliably in extreme environments, making it suitable for demanding applications in aerospace and high-temperature industrial processes.
Key Properties and Features:
- High-Temperature Strength: GH136 Alloy maintains excellent mechanical properties, including high tensile strength (~900 MPa or 130 ksi) and yield strength (~700 MPa or 102 ksi), at temperatures up to approximately 1300-1400°C (2370-2550°F). This capability makes it ideal for components exposed to intense heat.
- Oxidation and Corrosion Resistance: The alloy offers robust resistance to oxidation and high-temperature corrosion, ensuring long-term durability and performance in harsh environments. This feature is crucial for applications in gas turbines, jet engines, and other high-stress applications.
- Mechanical Properties: Provides good elongation (~15%), which contributes to its ability to withstand mechanical stress without compromising integrity.
- Thermal Conductivity: With a thermal conductivity of approximately 13 W/m·K (9 BTU·in/hr·ft²·°F), GH136 effectively manages heat dissipation, which is important in high-performance systems.
- Applications: Commonly used in aerospace components, gas turbines, and other high-temperature structural parts where high strength and resistance to thermal degradation are required.
GH136 Alloy’s combination of high strength, oxidation resistance, and thermal stability ensures it is a reliable choice for advanced engineering applications demanding exceptional performance under extreme conditions.
