Fe 15Cr 4.5Ni 3.5Cu 0.3Nb 0.07C Powder Description:
Fe 15Cr 4.5Ni 3.5Cu 0.3Nb 0.07C Powder is a martensitic, precipitation-hardening stainless steel alloy powder, produced via gas atomization using argon. This alloy is characterized by its high strength, excellent corrosion resistance, and good toughness. The chromium content provides a protective oxide layer, enhancing corrosion resistance, while the nickel and copper contribute to the alloy's overall strength and stability. The niobium and carbon elements further improve the hardness and wear resistance of the material. This powder is well-suited for applications requiring robust performance and durability in challenging environments.
