Copper Phosphorus Alloy

Copper Phosphorus (CuP) Alloy is an alloy made from copper being deoxidized with phosphorus. This is the most commonly used deoxidized copper. This master alloy is used as a deoxidant and alloying agent in the copper industry and also has applications in the aluminum, bronze, and brass industry. Copper is corrosion-resistant, but this property becomes enhanced with added phosphor. There is an increase in tensile strength, a reduction in brittleness characteristics, and an improvement in machinability and workability with the phosphorus addition to copper.

Reade offers one grade for the aluminum industry and three grades for the copper industry.
Typical Applications

Copper Phosphorus alloy is used as a deoxidant, alloying agent, and wetting agent for the copper industry, and also has application as a nucleant for the aluminum industry.

View Magnesium (Mg) Metal
Magnesium (Mg) Metal

Magnesium (Mg) is a light, moderately hard, silvery-white metal that ignites easily in the air and burns with a bright light. It is strong, has good heat dissipation and dampening, and is easy to weld, forge, cast or machine. It can improve the mechanical, fabrication, and welding characteristics when used as an alloying agent since it has a low density and is the lightest structural metal (a third lighter than aluminum). It also has good electrical properties. Magnesium turnings and chips are produced by milling commercial and high-purity magnesium, keeping size under control to obtain the desired specific surface and reactivity. They are silver-white. initially, but can turn to a dark gray if stored improperly. Purity: Standard purity (99.8% Mg) Ultra-high purity (99.98% Mg)

View Open Cell Metal Foam
Open Cell Metal Foam
Open cell metal foam, also known as reticulated foam, features 100% open cells with a homogenous structure. The open cells provide a path through the foam in any direction, allowing gas and liquids to pass at control flow rates and buffer pressure. Open foams have high surface area-to-volume ratios which offer large heat transfer rates. They are lightweight, with high compressive strength, stiffness, energy absorption, and low specific weight. Specific properties and applications vary based on foam material. The most popular open-cell metal foam products are Aluminum and RVC foam.
View Sponge Iron
Sponge Iron
Sponge iron, or direct reduced iron (DRI), is a highly porous, irregularly shaped sponge-like form of iron. It typically has lower bulk density and higher surface area than conventional powders (atomized or carbonyl). It is of high consistency and purity and has high green strength and low growth. Our sponge iron powders have fairly low carbon content (<1%) and typically >97% purity or higher.

View Nickel Aluminum Bronze
Nickel Aluminum Bronze
Nickel aluminum bronze alloys are copper-based metals that are alloyed with aluminum and additions of iron and nickel. Aluminum content in bronze results in higher strength and corrosion resistance. The addition of nickel enhances both of these properties. The iron acts as a grain refiner, increasing tensile strength without diminishing the alloy's excellent ductility and toughness. Aluminum 9.0% max, Iron 4.0% max, Manganese 1.5% max, Nickel 5% max, Lead 0.03% max, Copper Bal.
