Alloy 400 is a nickel-copper alloy (approx. 67% Ni – 23% Cu) that is resistant to seawater and steam at high temperatures as well as to salt and caustic solutions. It is a solid-solution alloy that can be hardened only by cold working. It’s wide used in marine applications and other nox-oxidizing chloride solutions. This nickel alloy is particularly resistant to hydrochloric and hydrofluoric acids when they are de-aerated. As would be expected from its high copper content, alloy 400 is rapidly attacked by nitric acid and ammonia systems.
