Abstract

An objective of the present invention is to provide a Ni—Fe—Cr alloy having an excellent intergranular corrosion resistance. A Ni—Fe—Cr alloy of the present embodiment has a chemical composition consisting of, in mass percent, C: 0.005 to 0.015%, Si: 0.05 to 0.50%, Mn: 0.05 to 1.5%, P: 0.030% or less, S: 0.020% or less, Cu: 1.0 to 5.0%, Ni: 30.0 to 45.0%, Cr: 18.0 to 30.0%, Mo: 2.0 to 4.5%, Ti: 0.5 to 2.0%, N: 0.001 to 0.015%, and Al: 0 to 0.50%, with the balance being Fe and impurities. An average grain size d (μm) satisfies Formula (1): d <4.386/(C rel +0.15)  (1) where, C rel in Formula (1) is defined by Formula (2): C rel =C−0.125Ti+0.8571N  (2) where, symbols of elements in Formula (1) and Formula (2) are to be substituted by contents of corresponding elements (mass %).

Claims (18)
