CuproBraze Technical Papers

Society of Automotive Engineers

The Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) has published several technical papers about the underlying materials science governing the properties and use of CuproBraze alloys. The research corroborates and expands upon more than a decade of research, which led to the introduction of this important new technology.

Reprints can be ordered (and pdf-files can be downloaded) by visiting the SAE store on the SAE Web site or by calling SAE customer service at +1-877-606-7323 (U.S. and Canada only) or +1-724-776-4970 (Outside of U.S. and Canada) from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Eastern Time.
