What is the Difference Between Nickel-based Alloys and Ordinary Stainless Steel

After Russia pledged to scale back its military operations around Kyiv and in northern Ukraine, the prices of most industrial metals fell, led by aluminum, showing people's concerns for supply shortage eased.

At an earlier time, the West imposed sweeping sanctions on Russia for its invasion of Ukraine, which aroused concerns about the supply problem because Russia is a major producer of nickel, aluminum, and copper. 

Russia is also a major gas supplier to Europe, where potential supply disruptions are seen as hitting power-intensive aluminum and zinc Inconel625 powder are still very uncertain.

In fact, in essence, nickel-based alloys are also a kind of stainless steel. They are just special stainless steels. The chemical composition is also different from ordinary stainless steel. Nickel-based alloys are high in nickel, high chromium, and high molybdenum. A high-alloy stainless steel of high-alloy stainless steel.

In625

Among them, the famous steel is 6% Mo (254SMo). This steel has good local corrosion resistance. It has good pitting corrosion resistance and better stress corrosion resistance under the conditions of seawater, aeration, clearance and low-speed scouring (PI≥40). It is an alternative material for nickel-based alloys and titanium alloys. Secondly, it has excellent high temperature or high temperature corrosion resistance or corrosion resistance. It is irreplaceable for 304 stainless steel. In addition, from the perspective of the classification of stainless steel, the metallographic structure of special stainless steel is a stable austenitic metallurgical structure.


Because nickel-based alloy is a high-alloy high-performance special material, its manufacturing process will be more complicated than ordinary stainless steel products. At present, most of them still rely on traditional processes for manufacturing, such as: infusion, forging, rolling and other processes.

Due to the Russia-Ukraine conflict and the covid-19 pandemic, how will the international situation develop is highly uncertain. It is too difficult to assess its economic impact properly. However, we could see energy prices and commodity prices keep rising and supply chains are disrupted. Therefore, Inconel625 powder prices are expected to rise in the future.
