Some key features of CuNi30 include:

1. Excellent Corrosion Resistance

CuNi30 provides outstanding resistance to corrosion, especially in saltwater and marine environments, making it ideal for use in seawater cooling systems, shipbuilding, and offshore structures.

2. High Nickel Content

The 30% nickel content in CuNi30 significantly enhances its corrosion resistance, oxidation resistance, and mechanical strength, compared to pure copper. It is particularly effective in resisting biofouling and rust.

3. Good Mechanical Strength

CuNi30 offers strong tensile strength and mechanical properties, allowing it to withstand significant stress and mechanical forces in demanding applications. This makes it suitable for marine hardware, piping systems, and other structural components.

4. Resistant to Erosion and Cavitation

The alloy is highly resistant to erosion and cavitation, making it suitable for marine components such as propellers, pumps, and valves that are exposed to turbulent or high-velocity water flow.

5. Good Thermal Conductivity

While not as conductive as pure copper, CuNi30 still offers good thermal conductivity, which is beneficial for applications like heat exchangers, cooling systems, and temperature regulation in industrial processes.

6. Non-Magnetic

CuNi30 is non-magnetic, which is essential for electrical components and sensitive instrumentation where magnetic interference could disrupt functionality. This makes it valuable in electronic devices and marine instrumentation.

7. Workability and Fabrication

CuNi30 is highly malleable, ductile, and can be easily welded, machined, and formed into a variety of shapes such as pipes, tubes, fittings, and valves. It is ideal for custom fabrication in complex industrial and marine applications.

8. High-Temperature Resistance

The alloy performs well under high temperatures, maintaining its mechanical properties and corrosion resistance even in extreme conditions. It is suitable for industrial systems, gas turbines, and heat exchangers that operate in high-heat environments.

9. Electrical Conductivity

While it has lower electrical conductivity than pure copper, CuNi30 still provides adequate conductivity for applications like electrical contacts and resistors, especially when corrosion resistance is prioritized over maximum conductivity.

Applications:

Marine: Seawater cooling systems, shipbuilding, offshore structures, propellers, marine pumps, and heat exchangers.
Industrial: Piping systems, valves, fittings, heat exchangers, and cooling systems exposed to harsh conditions.
Electrical: Electrical contacts, resistors, and electrical components where corrosion resistance is important.
Aerospace & Automotive: High-temperature components, gas turbines, heat shields, and other applications requiring durability and resistance to thermal stress.

CuNi30 is a versatile and durable copper-nickel alloy that excels in corrosion resistance, mechanical strength, and thermal properties, making it suitable for a wide range of demanding applications. Its resistance to erosion and cavitation, along with workability and high-temperature performance, make it ideal for marine, industrial, and electrical applications where long-lasting reliability is required.
