1. Introduce
– HS : Abbreviation for Haynes Stellite
– Cobalt-based high-temperature superalloy with high tensile and creep properties
– Better stress-rupture properties at 926℃ and 980℃ than other alloys
– Excellent oxidation and reduction resistance up to 1150°C
– UNS R30031
* Stellite Alloys
- A Co-Cr alloy designed for wear resistance
- Alloys with Cr, C, W, Mo, etc. added to a Co base
- Excellent corrosion, erosion, and wear resistance
→ Cause : Intrinsic properties of hard carbide phase dispersed in the CoCr alloy base
* UNS
- Abbreviation for Unified Numbering Systems for Metals and Alloys
- Unified unique numbering system for metals and alloys
- A representative number that is compatible with metals and alloys defined in many material-related codes such as ASTM, AISI, ASME, AWS, etc.
* R : Reactive and Refractory Metals and Alloys
* UNS R30031 : 3XXXX : Cobalt
