As-cast C82000 Copper vs. As-cast C95400 Bronze

Both as-cast C82000 copper and as-cast C95400 bronze are copper alloys. Both are furnished in the as-fabricated (no temper or treatment) condition. They have 85% of their average alloy composition in common. There are 28 material properties with values for both materials. Properties with values for just one material (2, in this case) are not shown.

For each property being compared, the top bar is as-cast C82000 copper and the bottom bar is as-cast C95400 bronze.
