Copper-Nickel Alloys CuNi10Fe1Mn, CuNi30Fe1Mn

Copper-nickel alloys, also known as Cu-Ni (10 to 30 % nickel), offer excellent corrosion resistance, especially in marine saltwater environments.

The chemical composition of alloys Copper-Nickel 10® and Copper-Nickel 30® has been optimized in collaboration with our customers in order to maximize the behavior of the metal under the most stringent conditions of seawater corrosion.

Additionally, Copper-Nickel 10® and Copper-Nickel 30® meet all requirements of most international standards.

Properties and Benefits
Copper-Nickel 10 and Copper-Nickel 30 have an excellent behavior when exposed to all forms of marine corrosion (sea water, brine and sea atmospheric exposures). This property is mainly due to the fact that the alloy prevents dissolution by forming a very strong protective surface film.

Copper-Nickel 10® and Copper-Copper-Nickel 30® have also a good behaviour in other environments such as a good resistance in an ammoniacal environment. The behaviour of copper nickel in the presence of crude petroleum is correct in the vapour phase, with however, the risk of the protective film being destroyed.

Copper-Nickel 10® resistance to fire : Tests of resistance to fire have been made in simulating the service conditions of a pipeline during an offshore fire : piping empty – during 5 minutes – at 700°C, partly in the flame, then 15 minutes on water (with the start of the sprinklers). They have shown the total reliability of Copper-Nickel  10® : no rupture of the weld or of the brazing, no leakage, no permanent deformation. After the end of the fire, the piping in Copper-Nickel 10® has needed no replacement
