COPPER OXIDE
Copper ingot is a metal with extremely high electrical and thermal conductivity, characterized by its orange-red color and beautiful metallic luster. Copper is one of the most important metals in the electronics and electrical industries and has extensive applications across many industries due to its unique properties.
Technical Features and Properties of Copper:
• High Electrical and Thermal Conductivity: Copper is among the best metals in terms of electrical and thermal conductivity, making it widely used in the production of wires and electrical cables.
• Corrosion Resistance: Copper is naturally resistant to corrosion and remains durable under various weather conditions.
• High Alloying Capability: Copper easily alloys with other metals, creating alloys like brass (copper and zinc) and bronze (copper and tin), each with unique characteristics.
Types Based on Purity and Grade:
Pure Copper 99.99% (4N)
Application: This high-purity copper is used in the electronics industry for manufacturing wires, electronic boards, and semiconductors.
Pure Copper 99.95% (3N)
Application: This standard-grade copper is widely used in the electrical industry, including cable production, copper pipes, and electrical components.
Electrolytic Copper
Application: Electrolytic copper, produced through the electrolysis process, is used in electrical and electronic industries. Due to its high purity and excellent conductivity, it is ideal for making electrical wires, cables, and precision electrical parts.
Casting Copper
Application: This type of copper is used in the production of alloys such as brass and bronze. It is also used for industrial parts that require casting and molding.
Recycled or Workshop Copper Ingots
Application: This copper is produced by recycling copper scraps and is used in general industries, copper alloy production, and other industrial applications requiring lower purity. It is commonly used in foundries and recycling workshops.
