Superalloy
A class of high-performance metal alloys designed for operation at extreme temperatures (above 650°C) while maintaining strength, creep resistance, and oxidation resistance.
01 Definition
A class of high-performance metal alloys designed for operation at extreme temperatures (above 650°C) while maintaining strength, creep resistance, and oxidation resistance. Superalloys are based on nickel, cobalt, or iron and are used in jet engines, rocket nozzles, and fusion reactor first-wall components. Mondaloy 200 is a specialized superalloy for fusion applications.
