VDM® Alloy 59 is characterized by:
- Spherical particles
- High purity
- Low oxygen content
- Excellent resistance against a multitude of corrosive media under oxidizing and reducing conditions
- Very good weldability
- Corrosion Resistance
The corrosion resistance depends on the processing and heat treatment of the material. The conventionally produced VDM Alloy 59 has no propensity for grain boundary dispersions in hot forming or welding. The alloy can therefore be used in many chemical processes with oxidizing and reducing media. Furthermore, VDM® Alloy 59 is more resilient against chloride ion attack due to its high nickel, chromium and molyb-denum concentrations.
