What material is Inconel 718 high temperature alloy in China?
Inconel 718 high temperature alloy introduction:
Inconel 718 superalloy is a precipitation-reinforced nickel-based high-temperature and high-strength alloy
Inconel 718 has good comprehensive properties in the temperature range of -253~700℃, its yield strength below 650℃ ranks first among deformed high-temperature alloys, and it has good fatigue resistance, radiation resistance, and oxidation resistance. Corrosion resistance, good processability, welding performance and long-term structural stability can manufacture various parts with complex shapes. It has been widely used in the aerospace, nuclear and petroleum industries in the above temperature ranges.
Another feature of the alloy is that the structure of the alloy is particularly sensitive to the thermal processing process. The relationship between the precipitation and dissolution of phases in the alloy, as well as the relationship between structure, process and performance, can be grasped, and reasonable and feasible process flows can be tailored to different conditions. Formulations are required for use. A variety of parts are available that meet different strength levels and usage requirements.

Inconel 718 high temperature alloy process performance and requirements:
Thermal processing
The suitable heat treatment temperature is 1120-900℃, and the cooling method can be water quenching or other rapid cooling methods. After heat treatment, annealing should be carried out in time to ensure optimal performance. During thermal processing, the material should be heated to the upper limit of the processing temperature. In order to ensure plasticity during processing, the final processing temperature when deformation reaches 20% should not be lower than 960°C.
Cold working
Cold working should be carried out after solution treatment. The work hardening rate is greater than austenitic stainless steel, so the processing equipment should be adjusted accordingly, and an intermediate annealing process should be carried out during the cold working process.
