Magnetic Permeability
-
Fully solution annealed: permeability <1.005 (non‑magnetic).
-
Cold‑worked (e.g., U‑bending without annealing): can become weakly magnetic (μ up to 1.1) due to strain‑induced martensite? No – 600 is stable austenite, but cold work induces texture and slight ferromagnetism from nickel‑rich phases? Actually, Ni‑Cr alloys remain non‑magnetic, but heavy cold work can increase permeability to ~1.01‑1.02. For nuclear applications requiring strictly non‑magnetic, specify “final solution anneal after all forming.”
Application
Heat exchanger, condenser, and evaporator tubes in:
-
Caustic (NaOH/KOH) production and handling.
-
Synthetic fiber production (maintaining product purity).
-
Nuclear fuel processing (UF₆ handling).
-
Fluorochemical plants.
-
High-purity hydrogen or organic chemical processes.
