A Must for The Copper Novice.

Copper is used in the form of a wide variety of copper-containing metals, alloys and compounds, and has also penetrated deeply into all areas of industrial production and life, becoming an indispensable and important metal for rapid development into the 21st century.

Definition of copper:

Copper is a chemical element with the chemical symbol Cu and an atomic number of 29, and is a transition metal. The most common use of copper is in the manufacture of electrical wire, which is usually made of pure copper, due to its electrical and thermal conductivity, which is second only to silver, but less expensive than silver.

Copper in industry:

Commonly processed copper materials include: copper rods, copper rows, copper ingots, copper sheets, copper wires, copper alloys, copper foil, copper tubes, copper foil, copper clay, copper castings, electrolytic copper, and other copper alloys copper materials. Copper also has considerable advantages: it is highly conductive, stable and very environmentally friendly, which makes it extremely versatile.

1.Power transmission

Mainly used for power cables, busbars, transformers, switches, plugging components and connectors, etc.

2.Electrical machinery manufacturing

Highly conductive and high-strength copper alloys are widely used in the manufacture of electric motors, mainly in the stator, rotor and shaft head.

3.Communication cables

Due to the high current-carrying capacity of fibre-optic cables and other advantages, they are constantly replacing copper cables in communication trunk lines and are rapidly spreading their application.

4.Electric vacuum devices

Electric vacuum devices are mainly high frequency and ultra-high frequency transmitters, waveguides, magnetrons, etc., which require high purity oxygen-free copper and diffusion-reinforced oxygen-free copper.

5.Printed Circuits

Copper printed circuits, in which copper foil is used as a surface and pasted onto a plastic plate used as a support, and the circuit wiring diagram is printed on the copper plate by photographic means.

6.Integrated circuits

Leadframes: Copper alloys can control their properties to a large extent through alloying and can better meet the performance requirements of leadframes, which have become an important material for leadframes.
