Abstract
The purpose of the present invention is to provide an alloy product which has both of high corrosion resistance enough to withstand severe corrosive/high-temperature environments and mechanical properties equivalent to or better than those of stainless steel, and which can be produced at lower cost than a Ni-based alloy. The Cr—Fe—Ni-based alloy product of the present invention is a product produced using a Cr—Fe—Ni-based alloy containing Cr as a largest-content component, wherein the product has such a microstructure that a dual-phase structure having a ferrite phase and an austenite phase coexisting therein serves as a matrix phase and an L12-type Ni-based intermetallic compound phase is dispersed and precipitated in the austenite phase.
