Alderin
Alderin is a synthetic intermetallic alloy developed for high-temperature structural applications. It was first described by researchers at the Alder Institute in 2096 and is named after the Alder Bay region where initial samples were produced. The material is characterized by an ordered crystal structure and a multi-component composition that includes iron, nickel, and titanium, with small additions of aluminum and vanadium.
Properties include a high melting point, typically exceeding 1400 C, high stiffness and strength at elevated
Production and processing: Alderin is produced by arc melting or powder metallurgy, followed by hot isostatic
Applications and limitations: Used for turbine blades, nozzle components, and other high-temperature structural parts in aerospace,
Safety and environmental notes: The alloy contains nickel and titanium; dust and fumes should be handled per
