Nimonic refers to a family of high-performance nickel-based alloys that are known for their excellent resistance to high temperatures, oxidation, and corrosion. These alloys are predominantly used in applications where high strength and durability are essential, such as in gas turbines, aircraft engines, and other critical components operating at elevated temperatures. The term "Nimonic" is actually a registered trademark, originally developed by the British company Special Metals in the mid-20th century.
