Alloy Characteristics and Uses
Invar
Invar
Invar, composed of 36% nickel and 64% iron, closely resembles steel and is widely used in household appliances and controls.
Kovar
Kovar
Kovar, an iron-nickel-cobalt alloy, maintains minimal dimensional change with temperature fluctuations and is widely used in hermetic seals, x-ray and microwave tubes, and light bulb ends.
