UNS N06600 is corrosion resistant to a wide range of corrosive media. The chromium composition gives the alloy better corrosion resistance under oxidizing conditions than nickel 99.2 (alloy 200) and nickel 99.2 (alloy 201, low carbon). Also, the higher nickel content gives the alloy good corrosion resistance under reducing conditions and in alkaline solutions, and is effective in preventing chloride-iron stress corrosion cracking. alloy 600 has good corrosion resistance in organic acids such as acetic acid, acetic acid, anthranilic acid, and stearic acid, and moderate corrosion resistance in inorganic acids. It has excellent corrosion resistance in high-purity water used in primary and secondary cycles in nuclear reactors. 600 is particularly outstanding in its ability to resist corrosion by dry chlorine gas and hydrogen chloride, with application temperatures up to 650℃. At high temperatures, the alloy in the annealed and solution-treated states has excellent resistance to oxidation spalling and high strength in air. The alloy is also resistant to ammonia and nitriding and carburizing atmospheres, but it is subject to corrosion by partially oxidizing media (e.g., green death fluids) when redox conditions change alternately.
