Experimental Research on Hot Working Property of Monel K-500 Alloy

Abstract

Monel K-500 alloy is an important nickel-based corrosion resistant material with excellent corrosion resistant ability in various corrosion circumstances (include electrochemical and chemical corrosion) and good mechanical properties. However, Monel K-500 alloy is also a sensitive material to high temperature. Hot working process has significant effect on its working character and quality. In view of existing problems in domestic manufacturing enterprises, some experiments were carried out in different working temperature, deformation degree and strain rate to investigate the performance of Monel K-500 alloy in hot working process. The research results show that moderate temperature, higher strain rate and deformation degree will be favorable to improve crystal structure and mechanical property of Monel K-500 Alloy.
