NanoSteel’s patented alloys have been designed to offer the highest level of wear and corrosion resistance in extreme high temperature operating environments. The result is a new class of coatings offering superior performance unmatched by competing alloy materials.
NanoSteel Alloy Outperforms Competing Industry Standard Material
NanoSteel’s SHS 8000 alloy for thermal spray coating applications on boiler tubes compares favorably to a leading competing coating in all pertinent performance categories.
Erosion resistance is 100% better as reported by independent lab test results
Abrasion resistance is 250% better (based on ASTM G65-04 testing)
Bond strength is 12% higher providing a more tenacious bond to substrate
Coefficient of friction is 25% lower which reduces surface build up of slag, ash and clinker
Coefficient of thermal expansion is 15% higher which provides for less cracking
These excellent material characteristics are backed by a successful 9 month field trial comparison, assuring plant managers that SHS 8000 is the best thermal spray coating material on the market for applications in power.
