Superalloys are the group of alloys, which are alloyed particularly with nickel, cobalt, and iron along with other metals to enhance their corrosion resistance. These alloys are widely used in aerospace gas turbine engines, nuclear reactors, power generation turbines, petrochemical equipment, rocket engines, and others owing to their remarkable properties such as high mechanical strength, creep resistance at high temperature, significant surface stability, and corrosion, oxidation, & high-temperature, resistance.

Portland, OR -- (SBWire) -- 10/02/2017 --Superalloys Market Report, published by Allied Market Research, states that the global market was valued at $3,727 million in 2015, and is estimated to reach $7,150 million by 2022, growing at a CAGR of 9.5% from 2016 to 2022. In 2015, nickel-based segment held more than half share of the total market.

The base alloying element used for superalloys are nickel, cobalt, and iron. These alloys facilitate improved operating efficiency and reduce environmental emissions. Presently, there is an increased usage of superalloys owing to the increase in need for high-strength materials that can withstand high temperature and resist creeping in aerospace and aircraft applications. The growth of the market is further driven by increase in adoption of superalloys in aerospace and power industries. However, high cost of these alloying metals is expected to hamper the growth of the market.
