CU5815 Copper Aluminium Alloy Spherical Powder (Cu 10Al Powder)

Cu 10Al Powder Description:

Cu 10Al Powder is a mechanically alloyed Aluminum Bronze known for its self-bonding properties during thermal spraying, particularly effective when applied using combustion powder spraying techniques. This material yields coatings that are easy to machine and exhibit excellent surface quality. The coatings demonstrate good resistance to wear and galling at low to medium temperatures and provide outstanding resistance to abrasion and cavitation. Cu 10Al Powder is ideal for applications involving soft bearings and is suitable for low-temperature environments where moderate oxidation, wear, and cavitation resistance are required, offering significant corrosion resistance compared to pure Copper materials.
