Monel alloy 400 has excellent corrosion resistance and medium-temperature strength, especially in the mediums of med-high temperature strong acid and strong base, it shows better effect. In fluorine, hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid, hydrofluoric acid and their derivatives, MONEL alloy 400 shows extreme corrosion resistance. Monel 400 exhibits resistance to corrosion by many reducing media. It is also generally more resistant to attack by oxidizing media than higher copper alloys. This versatility makes alloy 400 suitable for service in a variety of environments.

Monel K-500 has better mechanical property than MONEL 400 because of the add of aluminum and titanium. The corrosion resistance of MONEL alloy K-500 is substantially equivalent to that of alloy 400 except that, when in the age-hardened condition, alloy K-500 has a greater tendency toward stress-corrosion cracking in some environments.
