PA 4/6 vs. C71640 Copper-nickel

PA 4/6 and C71640 copper-nickel belong to fundamentally different material chemistries. PA 4/6 is a polymeric material, while C71640 copper-nickel is a metal. Therefore, their performance will be even more dissimilar than would be suggested by the difference in properties. There are 3 material properties with values for both materials. Properties with values for just one material (30, in this case) are not shown.

For each property being compared, the top bar is PA 4/6 and the bottom bar is C71640 copper-nickel.
