New Copper Alloys Used to Make Products Intended for Contact with Drinking Water

This article presents the results of tests conducted as part of a research project with the primary objective of developing new copper alloys with limited lead content. The new group of materials were created in a production plant. As part of tests, a group of 22 alloys were selected for testing in...
