Aegion N02.2 Series: Aegion N
Applications in nuclear reactor boilers and other reactor components
Aegion N alloy is provides superior resistance against metal dusting and hot corrosion induced by molten fluoride salts at high temperatures as the fission process generates significant heat & corrosive environment.
This heat is efficiently transferred to a working fluid circulating around the core causing the surrounding mechanical metal systems to be susceptible to degradation by metal dusting and hot corrosion in high-temperature environments containing molten fluoride salts.
​
Therefore, Aegion N alloy enhances the safety and performance of the mechanical system as the high temperature induced hot corrosion as well as metal dusting can be prevented by using Aegion N.
