70Ag-30Ni Alloy vs. C96400 Copper-nickel

70Ag-30Ni alloy belongs to the otherwise unclassified metals classification, while C96400 copper-nickel belongs to the copper alloys. They have a modest 30% of their average alloy composition in common, which, by itself, doesn't mean much. There are 17 material properties with values for both materials. Properties with values for just one material (11, in this case) are not shown.

For each property being compared, the top bar is 70Ag-30Ni alloy and the bottom bar is C96400 copper-nickel.
