STRUCTURE AND PROPERTIES OF ALLOYS OF THE NI-CR-MO SYSTEM

In the early 1960s the USSR turned to the development of ''large chemi stry.'' Intensification of existing technological processes and develo pment of new ones with higher temperatures and pressures and more aggr essive media required the creation of corrosion-resistant and reliable alloys based on nickel to be used in chemical equipment. At that time the principles of alloying alloys for such composite operating condit ions and production technologies had not been formed. This determined the development of scientifically substantiated alloying principles an d the creation, on their basis, of corrosion-resistant deformable weld able nickel alloys of different alloying systems (Ni - Mo, Ni - Cr - M o) with the requisite set of operating and technological properties. R esearch in this direction led by the author at the Bardin Central Rese arch Institute of Ferrous Metallurgy (TsNIIChERMET) solved the problem .
