4.Characteristics
1.Excellent resistance to many corrosive aqueous media and hightemperature atmospheres.
2.High strength, good metallurgical stability, and favorable fabrication characteristics.
3.outstanding resistance to oxidizing chemicals and to high-temperature oxidizing gases.
4.Good resistance to stresscorrosion cracking in chloride-containing environments as well
as to sodium hydroxide solutions.
5.Applications
The alloy’s resistance to sulfur-containing gases makes it an attractive material for such
applications as coal-gasification units, burners and ducts for processing sulfuric acid, furnaces
for petrochemical processing, recuperators, incinerators, and glass vitrification equipment for
radioactive waste disposal. In various types of high-temperature water, alloy 690 displays low
corrosion rates and excellent resistance to stress-corrosion cracking. Thus, alloy 690 is widely
used for steam generator tubes, baffles, tubesheets, and hardware in nuclear power generation.
