Nickel-chromium alloys are prized for their high corrosion resistance, high-temperature strength, and high electrical resistance. For example, the alloy NiCr 70/30, also designated as Ni70Cr30, Nikrothal 70, Resistohm 70, and X30H70 has a melting point of 1380oC and an electrical resistivity of 1.18 μΩ-m.  Heating elements such as in toasters and other electrical resistance heaters make use of nickel-chromium alloys. When produced in wire form they are known as Nichrome® wire.

Nickel-titanium alloys feature shape retention of shape memory properties. By forming a shape from this alloy at a higher temperature and them deforming it from that formed shape at a lower temperature, the alloy will remember the initial shape and reform to that shape once heated to this so-called transition temperature. By controlling the composition of the alloy, the transition temperature can be altered. These alloys have a super-elastic property that can be exploited to provide, among other uses, a shock absorber against earthquake damage to help protect stone buildings.

Nickel will alloy easily with most metals such as copper, chromium, iron, and molybdenum. The addition of nickel to other metals alters the properties of the resulting alloy and can be used to produce desired characteristics such as improved corrosion or oxidation resistance, increased high-temperature performance, or lower coefficients of thermal expansion, for example.

“I tend to prefer brands who have always had a bit of culture and heritage central to what they do – like Hermès who have always championed craftsmanship.” Mark

MH: The people we feature in Hole & Corner, the magazine I edit, are a constant source of inspiration. We focus on people who live life on their on terms – makers in the widest sense who do something creative – often hiding themselves away from the limelight, just concentrating on doing the best job they can.

MH: The idea was always for Hole & Corner to be a lifestyle rather than just a magazine – so we organise events where you can learn skills from the people we feature or buy their products – and we have also launched an agency, asecretplace.agency, where we create words, pictures, moving image and events for brands. That’s an area that we see evolving naturally, hand in hand with the magazine.

Nickel-iron alloys function in applications where the desired property is a low rate of thermal expansion. Invar 36®, also sold with trade names of Nilo 6® or Pernifer 6®, exhibits a coefficient of thermal expansion that is about 1/10 that of carbon steel. This high degree of dimensional stability renders nickel-iron alloys useful in applications such as precision measurement equipment or thermostat rods. Other nickel-iron alloys with even greater concentrations of nickel are used in applications where soft magnetic properties are important, such as transformers, inductors, or memory storage devices.

Mark is an award-winning editor and journalist. He has edited Hole & Corner magazine since launch and was previously Editor-in-Chief of Virgin Media’s customer communications at Redwood. He has also been Editor of Channel 4’s music website, Deputy Editor of i-D magazine and Associate Editor of Esquire and Arena magazines. He is a regular contributor to The Guardian, Wired and Wallpaper* and has also written for The Observer, The Independent, The Face, 032c and Fantastic Man, as well as a copywriter for BBH.

MH: I tend to prefer brands who have always had a bit of culture and heritage central to what they do – like Hermès who have always championed craftsmanship – but I think Buly 1803 is an incredible achievement – an old French perfumiers which has been reborn as a modern organic beauty brand with traditional values by Ramdane Touhami and Victoire de Taillac.

What isspotfacing

MH: I’ve worked for fashion and lifestyle magazines for over 20 years – initially I just called up Richard Benson at The Face magazine out of the blue and suggested some ideas to him; he was incredibly supportive and I ended up working full-time at their sister (or big brother) title Arena, where I met Sam Walton. We decided to launch our own magazine, Hole & Corner, after bemoaning the current state of magazines and deciding to do something about it.

MH: We’re planning our ‘Performance’ issue as well as preparing for a summer of festival events – we run the huge Makers’ Tent at Port Eliot Festival and will also be at the Good Life Experience and Wilderness Festival this year, followed by curating the British Craft Pavilion for London Design Fair.

Nickel-molybdenum alloys offer high chemical resistance to strong acids and other reducers such as hydrochloric acid, hydrogen chloride, sulfuric acid, and phosphoric acid. The chemical makeup for an alloy of this type, such as Alloy B-2®, has a concentration of molybdenum of 29-30% and a nickel concentration of between 66-74%. Applications include pumps and valves, gaskets, pressure vessels, heat exchangers, and piping products.

Nickel-copper alloys are very resistant to corrosion by salt water or seawater and thus find application in marine applications. As an example, Monel 400®, also sold under the trade names Nickelvac® 400 or Nicorros® 400, can find application in marine piping systems, pump shafts, and seawater valves. This alloy as a minimum concentration of 63% nickel and 28-34% copper.

These alloys of nickel add chromium and molybdenum to add creep rupture strength to the alloy. Alloy 617 is an example, sold under the trade names Inconel 617® and Nicrofer® 617, which has a composition of 20-24% chromium, 10-15% cobalt, and 8-10% molybdenum with a minimum nickel content of 44.5%. Applications for these alloys include industrial furnace components, gas turbines, catalyst grid supports to produce nitric acid, and fossil fuel production facilities.

With similar applications to nickel-molybdenum alloys, nickel-chromium-molybdenum alloys also provide high corrosion resistance especially with regard to reducing acids such as hydrochloric acid and sulfuric acid. One of the best known of these alloys is Alloy C-276, also sold under the trade names Hastelloy C276®, Nickelvac® HC-276, Inconel® 276, and Nicrofer® 5716. This alloy is used in pollution control stack liners, ducts, and scrubbers, as well as in chemical processing components such as heat exchangers, evaporators, or reaction vessels. The composition of this alloy is primarily nickel with 15-17% molybdenum, 14.5-16.5% chromium, 4-7% Iron, 3-4.5% tungsten, and smaller concentrations of other elements such as manganese.

Nickel-chromium-iron alloys combine these elements to produce alloys that resist oxidation and high-temperature corrosion. Alloy 800, sold under the trade names Incoloy 800®, Ferrochronin® 800, Nickelvac® 800, and Nicrofer® 3220, is used in furnace components such as petrochemical furnace cracker tubes, and as a material for sheathing of electrical heating elements. These alloys generally are also valued for their optimum creep and rupture properties at high temperatures. The composition of these alloys is typically 30-35% Nickel, 19-23% Chromium and a minimum of 39.5% Iron. The high concentration of iron has led to the reclassification of these alloys as stainless steel.
