C99500 Copper vs. CC380H Copper-nickel

Both C99500 copper and CC380H copper-nickel are copper alloys. Both are furnished in the as-fabricated (no temper or treatment) condition. They have a moderately high 93% of their average alloy composition in common. There are 26 material properties with values for both materials. Properties with values for just one material (3, in this case) are not shown.

For each property being compared, the top bar is C99500 copper and the bottom bar is CC380H copper-nickel.
