INCONEL alloy C-276 (UNS N10276/W.Nr. 2.4819) is
known for its corrosion resistance in a wide range of
aggressive media. The high molybdenum content
imparts resistance to localized corrosion such as pitting.
The low carbon minimizes carbide precipitation during
welding to maintain resistance to intergranular attack in
heat-affected zones of welded joints. It is used in
chemical processing, pollution control, pulp and paper
production, industrial and municipal waste treatment
and the recovery of “sour” natural gas. Applications in
air pollution control include stack liners, ducts,
dampers, scrubbers, stack-gas re-heaters, fans and fan
housings. In chemical processing, the alloy is used for
components including heat exchangers, reaction
vessels, evaporators and transfer piping.
