General description

Copper powder, 99.999% trace metals basis, is a fine powder that is typically red-brown in color. It is often produced through the reduction of copper oxide or other copper compounds using hydrogen or other reducing agents. Our powder is highly pure, with less than 15 ppm impurities such as lead, arsenic, and bismuth, making it suitable for a wide range of industrial and commercial applications. Copper is valued for its excellent electrical and thermal conductivity, high ductility, and resistance to corrosion.
