CuNi14Sn5 is a copper-nickel-tin ternary alloy combining the corrosion resistance of cupronickel with tin strengthening, typically used in marine and seawater-exposed environments. This alloy is notable for its biofouling resistance and strength in harsh aqueous media, making it a preferred choice over conventional copper-nickel alloys in naval architecture, desalination systems, and offshore applications where both erosion-corrosion and biological fouling present engineering challenges.
