Questions Which is lighter, Ceramic Aluminum Nitride or Copper C110? Ceramic Aluminum Nitride is lighter: 3,400 kg/m³ against 8,913 kg/m³ for Copper C110.
Which is stiffer, Ceramic Aluminum Nitride or Copper C110? Ceramic Aluminum Nitride is stiffer: Young's modulus 320 GPa against 117 GPa for Copper C110, so the same part in Ceramic Aluminum Nitride deflects less under the same load.
Which is lighter for the same job, Ceramic Aluminum Nitride or Copper C110? For the same stiffness or strength: Ceramic Aluminum Nitride is lighter for a stiff rod or tie (tension), stiff beam (bending), stiff panel or plate.
Part that must be Ceramic Aluminum Nitride Copper C110 Stiff rod or tie (tension) lighter 7.16x heavier Stiff beam (bending) lighter 4.33x heavier Stiff panel or plate lighter 3.66x heavier
For the same stiffness or strength, mass scales with density over stiffness (or strength) raised to a power set by how the part is loaded: 1 for a rod in tension, 1/2 for a beam in bending, 1/3 for a panel (the standard material-selection indices).
Which conducts heat better, Ceramic Aluminum Nitride or Copper C110? Copper C110 conducts heat better: 391 W/m·K against 150 W/m·K for Ceramic Aluminum Nitride.
Which expands less with temperature? Ceramic Aluminum Nitride expands less: 4.6 µm/m·K against 16.9 µm/m·K for Copper C110.
