Alloy 20 is a nickelchromiummolybdenum alloy developed for applications involving
sulfuric acid. Its corrosion resistance also finds other uses in the chemical,
food, pharmaceutical, power generation, and plastics industries. Alloy 20 resists
pitting and chloride ion corrosion and its copper content protects it from sulfuric
acid. Alloy 20 is not a stainless steel but a nickel alloy (ASTM). Alloy 20 is
often chosen to solve stress corrosion cracking problems, which may occur with 316L
stainless. Alloy of the same name with the designation "Cb-3" indicates Columbium
stabilized.
