Abstract
Abstract A mold for continuous casting made of a copper alloy having been subjected to 15 to 40% cold working, said alloy consisting of copper as main constituent and an addition of 0.18 to 0.85% by weight of tin, and, if desired, several other metal components, the alloy having a high softening temperature and high-temperature strength, whose numerical values are given by specific formulas in which the thermal conductivity λ is a determining factor which, in itself, is dependent on the construction of the mold, operating conditions etc.
