CR005A Copper vs. CC140C Copper

Both CR005A copper and CC140C copper are copper alloys. Both are furnished in the as-fabricated (no temper or treatment) condition. Their average alloy composition is basically identical. There are 28 material properties with values for both materials. Properties with values for just one material (1, in this case) are not shown.

For each property being compared, the top bar is CR005A copper and the bottom bar is CC140C copper.
