How does the cost of C10100 compare to C11000 (ETP Copper)?
C10100 is significantly more expensive than C11000 due to the complex manufacturing process required to achieve its ultra-high purity and oxygen-free state.
What is the corrosion resistance of C10100 like?
It offers excellent corrosion resistance in atmospheric, freshwater, and seawater environments, similar to other high-purity coppers. Its uniform structure can provide superior performance in certain corrosive media.
Can C10100 be used for cryogenic applications?
Yes, it retains excellent ductility and toughness at cryogenic temperatures, making it suitable for superconducting magnets and other low-temperature equipment.
Why should I choose C10100 over a less expensive copper?
You should choose C10100 when your application demands:
The absolute highest electrical and thermal conductivity.
Operation in high-vacuum or hydrogen-containing atmospheres.
Superior ductility and formability for complex electronic components.
Exceptional performance for critical applications in aerospace, defense, and high-energy physics.
Does C10100 work harden?
Yes, like all pure coppers, C10100 work hardens when cold-worked (e.g., bending, drawing). It can be softened by an annealing process.
