In certain intermediate temperature refinery and petrochemical applications, both resistance to polythionic acid and chloride stress corrosion cracking (SCC) and high temperature strength and stability are required. The effect of simulated operating temperatures in the 900 to 1500/sup 0/F (482 to 816/sup 0/C) range on the corrosion and mechanical properties of several nickel alloys is examined.
