Can a copper iridium alloy be a radioactive metal?

Yes, depending on the isotopes of copper or iridium involved. Now, the longest lived copper isotope is Cu-67, which has a half life of about 61 hours. So, if you made a Cu-67 +Ir alloy, it would be radioactive for a while. After a few weeks, it will not have any significant radioactivity….. read more

* There are no producers of Iridium Copper. * There are no current uses of Iridium copper . * If there was such an alloy, no miracles; it would not be able to stop a bus in its tracks. read more
