Nickel alloy 20 (Incoloy Alloy 020) is a nickel-iron-chromium
austenitic alloy that was developed for maximum resistance to acid
attack, specifically sulfuric acid. It has excellent resistance to
general corrosion, pitting, and crevice corrosion in chemicals
containing chlorides and sulfuric, phosphoric, and nitric acids. It also
contains niobium for stabilization against sensitization and resultant
intergranular corrosion. Nickel alloy 20 combines excellent corrosion
resistance with elevated mechanical properties and relatively easy
fabrication. Although originally designed for use in sulfuric acid
related industries, nickel alloy 20 is now a popular choice for a wide
variety of industries including the chemical, food, pharmaceutical, and
plastics industries. In addition, it is used in heat exchangers, mixing
tanks, metal cleaning and pickling equipment, and piping.
