NiCrMo alloy Hastelloy B-3 withstands vigorously corrosive acidic media such as hydrochloric
acid, sulfuric acid, formic acid, phosphoric acid and other
reducing conditions. It gives outstanding resistance to
non-oxidizing acids at the whole magnitudes and temperature limits.
The chemical composition of Nickel B3 makes it a more stable alloy
than Nickel B2, hence more convenient formation.
Due to low content of chromium, Hastelloy B3 is not suggested for
use in oxidizing conditions such as in presence of ferric or cupric
salts. It should also not be used in applications including wet
chloride or hypochlorite bleach.
Unique feature of Alloy B3 is its potential to maintain high
ductility during transient exposures to moderate temperatures.

Hastelloy B-3 Production
Troubles related with the fabrication of Hastelloy B2 parts decrease by using alloy B3 because of its enhanced thermal
stability. Lower carbon magnitude allows Nickel B3 to be used in
as-welded form. It has fine forming and welding properties. It can
be forged or hot processed up to 2250oF. It is important to use low
hot finishing temperatures to achieve grain size control. It may
also be produced through cold processing. However, it work hardens
quickly; alloy B3 parts can be produced following conventional cold
forging methods. For welding, the traditional welding techniques
are suitable except oxyacetylene and submerged arc welding.
