Glass Sealed Iron-Nickel-Cobalt Alloy 4j29 / Ni29Co18 / UNS K94610
/ Kovar Expansion Alloy Strip
Description
Kovar is a nominal 29%Ni-17%Co-54%Fe alloy that is a well-known
glass-sealing alloy suitable for sealing to hard glasses. Kovar has
a nominal expansion coefficient of approximately 5 ppm/°C and
inflection temperature of ~450 °C (840 °F).
Kovar (ASTM F15) has been used for making hermetic seals with the
harder Pyrex glasses and ceramic materials. This alloy has found
wide application in power tubes, microwave tubes, transistors, and
diodes. In integrated circuits, it has been used for the flat pack
and the dual-in-line package.

Invar 36, also known as FeNi36, is iron-nickel alloys have low
coefficients of expansion over only a rather narrow range of
temperature. It has a low coefficient of expansion from cryogenic
temperatures to about 260℃. In the dry air at home temperature,
invar 36 has good resistance to corrosion. But in moist air, it may
go corrosion.
Invar 36 is suitable for the applications who require low
coefficient of expansion, such as production, storage and
transportation of liquid gas, temperature regulation devices
working below 200℃, aperture mask, unit frameworks working below
-200℃ and so on.
