What is Nickel Copper
Nickel-Copper (Ni-Cu) alloys exhibit simultaneously high strength and toughness, excellent corrosion resistance, and may show good wear resistance. The Ni-Cu system forms the basis for the Monel alloy family. Monel was discovered by Robert Crooks Stanley who was employed by the International Nickel Company (INCO) in 1901. The new alloy was named in honour of the company president, Ambrose Monell. Ni and Cu exhibit very similar atomic characteristics. They both have face centred cubic (fcc) cryst
