The material selection of the heating wire depends on the specific application and working environment. The following are some common heating wire materials and their characteristics:
Iron-chromium-aluminum alloy (FeCrAl):
Advantages: good high temperature strength, high resistivity, good oxidation resistance, and high surface load.
Application: Suitable for high temperature environments, such as industrial furnaces, heat treatment equipment, etc.
Nickel-Chromium Alloy (NiCr):
Advantages: high temperature strength, good corrosion resistance, high emissivity, and non-magnetic.
Application: Widely used in electric heating equipment, household appliances, etc.
Copper Nickel Alloy (CuNi):
Advantages: good corrosion resistance and small temperature coefficient.
Application: Mainly used in precision instruments, temperature control equipment, etc.

Nickel-Iron Alloy (NiFe):
Advantages: Stable resistance-temperature characteristics and good corrosion resistance.
Application: Used in temperature sensors, thermostats, etc.
Molybdenum disilicon (MoSi2):
Advantages: high temperature resistance, good oxidation resistance.
Application: Mainly used in high temperature furnaces, ceramic sintering furnaces, etc.
Platinum-Rhodium Alloy (PtRh):
Advantages: high temperature resistance, good chemical stability.
Application: Used for high temperature measurement, thermocouples, etc.
When choosing heating wire materials, the following factors need to be considered:
Working temperature: Different materials have different maximum working temperatures. Choose materials that are suitable for the working temperature.
Anti-oxidation: Consider the anti-oxidation performance of the heating wire at high temperature to ensure long-term stable operation.
Corrosion resistance: Select materials with good corrosion resistance according to whether the working environment is corrosive.
Temperature Coefficient of Resistance: Understanding the material's resistance as it changes with temperature to ensure stable resistance at different temperatures.
Cost considerations: The costs of different materials vary greatly, and a balance needs to be found between performance and cost.
In general, the selection of heating wire materials requires comprehensive consideration based on specific working conditions and performance requirements.
