Copper

Chemical element symbol is (Cu) and atomic number 29.

Copper classified in the group of transition metals.

Copper is with the Gold, the first metal to have been used by humans because it is part of the few metals that occur naturally as a pure mineral in a native form.

Reddish metal or red colour, Copper has outstanding electrical and thermal conductivity. The pure metal is very resistant to corrosion, but also very malleable. The Copper Powder is classified by the purity, the method of production, grain and density. Variations in the form of Copper patticles, the density and the particle surface state significantly affect the ease of use of the Copper Powder for some applications.

Copper isotopes are determined by the particle size of one micron, between 1 and 7 micrometres, the larger and ‘smaller, and high quality. The purity is also an important variable. Copper Powder isotopes 63/65 have a great demand in the international market. Its main uses are nanotechnology, microelectronics, microbiology, military industry, and medicine, chemical and nuclear.
