Abstract

Abstract A corrosion resistant alloy is provided having as essential elements about 0.8 to 1.2% carbon, 1 to 2.2% silicon, 0.4 to 10% manganese, 23 to 35% chromium, 2.5 to 11% tungsten, 1 to 4% molybdenum and the balance essentially iron. Other elements may be optionally present, such as up to about 2% each of cobalt, nickel, niobium, tantalum, vanadium, titanium, up to about 1% aluminum, up to about 0.1% boron, up to about 1% nitrogen, up to about 4% copper, rhenium in amounts of up to about 30% of the tungsten content, and up to about 3% of misch metal.
