Ni-based superalloys

Ni-based superalloys are special metal mixtures primarily made of nickel, designed to withstand extremely high temperatures and stresses. They are crucial in jet engines and gas turbines because they maintain strength and durability under harsh conditions, such as intense heat and mechanical load. These alloys often include elements like aluminum, titanium, and cobalt, which help resist corrosion and oxidation. Their unique crystal structure allows them to retain their properties during prolonged high-temperature operation, ensuring reliable engine performance and safety in aerospace and power generation.
