Steel is advancing and when the state of steel metallurgy is described people might call it the "space age of steels". Steel can be very stainless and strong and achieve goals once considered impossible for a material.

Copper is like, pure copper: done.

Are there copper alloys that will be the super-coppers that make things possible that copper is considered incapable of in common knowledge? what could it do? corrosion resistance and being able to replace gold in electronics, current handling at smaller diameters of wire, resistance to wear in connectors, improved performance in thermal conductors/cooling systems.

Does anyone know off hand what there is to know?

Some feel that impidenciary metals are the best, but not on Tuesday's.

 

Well, there's gunmetal, aka red brass.
