There is a growth of the grain under heat during utilisation of the element without inducing embrittlement of it when cold. They are used for the manufacture of electric resistances for appliances (insulated elements type tubular resistances or for example opened elements on micanit plate) or for application of industrial furnaces. In addition of a relatively high specific resistance, Ni-Cr alloys join all the necessary properties for good performances in use of furnaces:Resistance to oxidation (they are not sensitive to aggressions of humid air)Low embrittlement at high temperatureGood plasticity - Easier to give them a shape compared with FeCrAl (lower mechanical characteristics allow indeed a good control of elasticity of the product during shaping (coiling, folding, drawing)Good resistance to creeping (more important than ferritic alloys) which is important during conception of a resistance presenting big heights of waves. Maximal temperature recommended in the furnace: 1050 / 1100 ° C in order to obtain a reasonable life time of the elements.Constraints:Nevertheless, it is to be rejected in presence of a sulphurous or chlorinated atmosphere. The sulphur causes indeed breaking on nickel alloys at higher temperatures of 650 ° C ("green rot" phenomenon). For carbonaceous atmospheres, at some temperatures between 600 and 900 ° C, Ni-Cr prove less resistant than FeCrAl.Alloy Nomenclature PerformanceCr20Ni80Cr30Ni70Cr15Ni60Cr20Ni35Cr20Ni30Main Chemical compositionNiRestRest55.0-61.034.0-37.030.0-34.0Cr20.0-23.028.0-31.015.0-18.018.0-21.018.0-21.0Fe≤ 1.0≤ 1.0RestRestRestMax. continuous service temp. of element(º C)12001250115011001100Resistivity at 20º C (μ Ω · m)1.091.181.121.01.04Density(g/cm3)8.408.108.207.907.90Thermal conductivity (KJ/m· h· º C)60.345.245.243.843.8Coefficient of lines expansion(α × 10-6/º C)18.017.017.019.019.0Melting point approx.
