Abstract

Age-hardening nickel-chromium-iron-titanium-aluminum wrought alloy with very good wear resistance and at the same time good creep strength, good high-temperature corrosion resistance and good processability, with (in mass-%)>18 to 26% chromium, 1.5 to 3.0% titanium, 0.6 to 2.0% aluminum, 7.0 to 40% iron, 0.005 to 0.10% carbon, 0.0005 to 0.050% nitrogen, 0.0005 to 0.030% phosphorus, max. 0.010% sulfur, max. 0.020% oxygen, max. 0.70% silicon, max. 2.0% manganese, max. 0.05% magnesium, max. 0.05% calcium, max. 0.5% molybdenum, max. 0.5% tungsten, max. 0.2% niobium, max. 0.5% copper, max. 0.5% vanadium, if necessary 0 to 15% Co, if necessary 0 to 0.20% Zr, if necessary 0.0001 to 0.008% boron, wherein optionally the following elements may also be contained in the alloy: Y 0-0.20% and/or La 0-0.20% and/or Ce 0-0.20% and/or Ce mixed metal 0-0.20% and/or Hf 0-0.20% and/or Ta 0-0.60%, remainder nickel and the usual unavoidable impurities, wherein the relationship Cr+Fe+Co≧25% must be satisfied in order to achieve good processability and the relationship fh≧0 with fh=6.49+3.88 Ti+1.36 Al−0.301 Fe+(0.759−0.0209 Co)Co−0.428Cr−28.2C, has to be satisfied in order that an adequate strength is achieved at higher temperatures, wherein Ti, Al, Fe, Co, Cr and C are the concentrations of the elements in question in mass-% and fh is expressed in %.
