UNS N10001 (2.4810) Nickel-Molybdenum Alloy
N10001 nickel is a nickel alloy formulated for primary forming into wrought products. Cited properties are appropriate for the annealed condition. 2.4810 is the EN numeric designation for this material. N10001 is the UNS number.
It has a moderately high melting temperature among wrought nickels. In addition, it has a moderately low heat capacity and a moderately high embodied energy.
The graph bars on the material properties cards below compare N10001 nickel to: wrought nickels (top), all nickel alloys (middle), and the entire database (bottom). A full bar means this is the highest value in the relevant set. A half-full bar means it's 50% of the highest, and so on.
