Spherical Nimonic 80A Powder Description
Spherical Nimonic 80A Powder features a spherical morphology, resulting in high packing density. This enables the manufacture of feedstocks with high powder loading, which not only minimizes binder costs but also reduces part shrinkage during sintering. It also exhibits excellent flow characteristics, leading to reduced tool wear and consistent mold filling.
Nimonic 80A Alloy is a wrought, age-hardenable nickel-chromium alloy, strengthened with additions of titanium, aluminum, and carbon. It is developed for service at temperatures up to 815℃.
