C1020 is a metallic material of extremely high purity with a precisely controlled chemical composition that ensures excellent electrical and thermal conductivity. Specifically, C1020 contains up to 99.97% copper and silver, while other elements such as tin, zinc, lead, boron, nickel, iron, beryllium, sulfur, arsenic, bismuth, and oxygen are strictly limited to extremely low levels to ensure purity and performance. It is worth mentioning that the impurity content of C1020 is also controlled below 0.03%, further emphasizing its high purity.
In addition to its excellent electrical and thermal conductivity, C1020 has excellent processability, weldability and corrosion resistance. This allows C1020 to be used in a wide range of applications in a number of fields, especially where high electrical and thermal conductivity as well as good corrosion resistance are required.
In terms of mechanical properties, C1020 also excels. With a hardness range of HV80-90 and a tensile strength of 245-345 MPa, these excellent mechanical properties allow C1020 to excel in longitudinal room temperature tensile testing of bars, with specimen sizes ranging from 16 to 120 millimeters in diameter, all of which satisfy its performance requirements.
In summary, C1020's high purity, excellent electrical and thermal conductivity, good processing and welding properties and excellent corrosion resistance make it a widely used prospect in many fields. Whether it is used as an electrically conductive material, a thermally conductive material or as a structural material, C1020 offers excellent performance and stability.
