What is Inconel 718 used for?
Since 2022, Russia-Ukraine geopolitical conflicts have intensified, and global energy prices have risen sharply, with international natural gas prices hitting historic highs. As the most important transitional energy source in the transition from fossil energy to non-fossil energy, the share of natural gas in primary energy has increased from 14.6% in 1965 to 24.7% in 2020. The global gas price indices showed a unilateral downward trend from 2018, bottomed out in 2020, and remained low for a long time. However, since July 2020, the global gas prices have gradually fluctuated upward, and the impact of geopolitical events made the Dutch TTF gas price even hit record highs repeatedly.
An analyst of a securities company believes that the core catalyst of this round of global gas market lies in the lack of investment in upstream oil and gas resources caused by long-term low prices. Since 2020, although the epidemic has led to a decline in demand, the decline in supply has been faster, resulting in a large inventory consumption. In 2021, demand will recover faster than supply (the supply-side is less sensitive to prices, which will be reflected in investment).
As the world's two largest gas In718 powder are also expected to change significantly.
What is Inconel 718
Inconel 718 or In718 is a nickel-chromium-molybdenum alloy resistant to various corrosion conditions, pitting, and crevice corrosion.
Inconel 718 superalloy has been used in aeroengines for half a century. In718 has become the most widely used nickel-based superalloy in the history of aero engines since it was invented in the United States in the early 1960s in The INCO Huntington Alloy (now Special Metals Co.) and used in turbine parts manufacturing.
Inconel 718 Key Properties
The unique alloy composition design of In718 gives it good comprehensive properties, such as high strength, creep resistance and fatigue life, good ductility, and excellent oxidation resistance. Especially below 650℃, its mechanical properties have good stability.

Inconel 718 Application
Many parts of modern aero engines, such as turbine discs, blades, brakes, shafts, stators, seals, supports, pipes, fasteners, etc., are made of In718. In addition, In718 is also used in nuclear reactors (heat exchanger pipe), sub (propeller blades, quick disconnect device, auxiliary propulsion motor), chemical (vessels, pumps, valves, pipe), power (industrial gas turbine), the oil and gas industry (underground pipelines, wellhead hardware, torch arm).
Inconel 718 Composition
What is Superalloy
Superalloy refers to a kind of metal material based on iron, nickel, and cobalt, which can work for a long time at high temperatures above 600℃ and under certain stress.
It has high high-temperature strength, good oxidation and corrosion resistance, good fatigue performance, fracture toughness, and other comprehensive properties. Superalloy with a single austenite structure has good stability and reliability at various temperatures. Superalloys are widely used in aviation, aerospace, petroleum, chemical, and ship.
According to the matrix elements, superalloys are divided into iron base, nickel base, cobalt base, and other superalloys. The use temperature of iron base superalloy can only reach 750-780℃ in general. For heat-resistant parts used at higher temperatures, people use nickel base and refractory metal-based alloy. Nickel-based superalloys play a very important role in the whole field of superalloys. They are widely used to manufacture the hottest parts of aviation jet engines and various industrial gas turbines.

New Delhi: India's Oil Ministry recently conveyed its intention to five national oil companies including Indian Oil Corp and Bharat Petroleum Resources LTD to assess the possibility of buying shares in Russian oil projects sold by European and American oil majors.
Bp announced it would give up its 19.75% stake in Rosneft, the Russian oil company. ExxonMobil said on March 1 that it would exit about $4 billion in assets and terminate all of its Russian operations, including the Sakhalin-1 project in Russia's far East.
India's oil ministry has asked the overseas investment arm of India's Oil and Gas Corporation to consider buying ExxonMobil's 30 percent stake in the Sakhalin 1 project in Russia's far East. ExxonMobil is the operator of the project and Indian companies already have a 20 percent stake in the project.
Because of the ever-changing international situation, the supply and prices of international bulk In718 powder are still very uncertain.
