Spinodal Strip Materials for Shaped Charge Liner Material

Our Spinodal strip materials in Copper-Nickel-Tin alloys offer high ductility for forming into shaped charge liner material for the perforation of oil and gas well liners. Shaped Charge Liner Material Advantages The Spinodal material is produced through our wrought powder compaction process which imparts properties allowing the material to virtually ‘disappear’ upon activating the charge. The material is well suited to “big hole” applications for perforating charges and leaves little residue (commonly referred to as ‘carrots’ or ‘slugs’). Pfinodal® (C72900) and AM-388™ (UNS C72650) We produce two spinodal alloys for these shaped charge applications - Pfinodal® (C72900) copper alloy and AM-388™ (UNS C72650). They benefit from age hardening techniques that further increase their strength and hardness required for deep hole penetration applications. These spinodal materials deliver superior mechanical and physical properties in comparison
