Behaviour of Incoloy 825 and Inconel 625 Purity

Content Incoloy 825 Inconel 625
Sulphur (S) <=0.03.0% <=0.015%
Manganese (Mn) <=1.00% <=0.50%
Phosphorus (P) - <=0.015%

Sulfur- significant impact on transient performance Inconel 625 strictly controls the sulfur content.
Manganese has low impact on transient properties but have major influence on the durability of the material. Inconel 625 is better compared to Incoloy 825 in durability and transient properties.
Phosphorus content segregate to form a harmful phase which is affect the material performance and consumes large percentage of niobium to hinder strengthening Incoloy 825 strictly controls the Phosphorus content but in Inconel 625 phosphorus content should be strictly controlled.

Corrosion resistance

Content Incoloy 825 Inconel 625
Iron (Fe) >=22.0% <=5.0%
Nickel (Ni) 38.0-46.0% >=58.0%
Molybdenum 2.5-3.5% 8.0-10.0%


More iron content reduces cost and corrosion resistance Incoloy 825 are less expensive and exhibit low corrosion resistance
High nickel content provides more corrosion resistance Inconel 625 exhibit strong corrosion resistance compared to Incoloy 825
More Molybdenum content Inconel 625 display excellent resistance to aggressive corrosions compared to Incoloy 825

Mechanical behaviour

Content Incoloy 825 Inconel 625
Niobium and Tantalum (Nb + Ta) - 3.15-4.15%
Molybdenum (Mo) 2.5-3.5% 8.0-10.0%

Niobium and tantalum provide strong solid solution strengthening effect. Inconel 625 exhibit high mechanical strength compared to Incoloy 825
High Mo content offer excellent strengthening effect Inconel 625 has more stronger strengthening effect.
