Sometimes called cupronickels, there exists a range of different copper-nickel alloys possessing different properties and useful in a range of different applications. Some of the better known copper ...

Copper nickel alloys are comprised of 2% to 30% nickel and have high oxidation resistance and stress corrosion cracking resistance. Their high oxidation resistance is seen in moist air and steam.

Researchers at the Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne in Switzerland have used an amorphous metal alloy composed of platinum, copper, nickel and phosphorous to make electrodes for plastic ...

U.S. Army researchers, in collaboration with academic partners, invented a stronger copper that could help advance defense, energy and aerospace industries ...

Nickel-based superalloys (used in jet engines) are extremely strong but lack the high thermal conductivity of copper alloys. Tungsten-based alloys are highly heat-resistant but dense and difficult ...
