Nickel alloys were created in the late 1930s. In 1941, Britain produced the first nickel-based alloy called Nimonic 75 (Ni-20Cr-0.4Ti), and later improved it by adding Al to enhance its creep strength, resulting in Nimonic 80 (Ni-20Cr-2.5Ti-1.3Al). The United States, Russia, and China also developed their own nickel-based alloys
