As one of the oldest names in metallurgical history, copper exhibits a unique combination of properties including high electrical and thermal conductivity, and high resistance to corrosion. Copper is also known to be anti-bacterial and when cleaned properly kills greater than 99.9% of the following bacteria within 2 hours of exposure.

Available Alloys
Oxygen Free Copper
Oxygen-free, high-conductivity copper, C10100 (electronic grade) is undoubtedly the purest copper commercially available and possess a unique set of properties. For example, it’s freedom from oxygen, as the name implies, gives it immunity to hydrogen embrittlement when exposed to elevated temperatures under reducing conditions.

Electrolytic Tough Pitch (ETP)
Also called Electrolytic Tough Pitch (ETP) copper, C11000 has aminimum copper plus silver content of 99.90% with about 200-600ppm (0.02-0.06%) oxygen present as cuprous oxide. This copper is noted for its high electrical and thermal conductivity, good corrosion resistance and solderability, and characteristic copper color.
