Copper Metal Powder Ultrafine 99%+ Pure

Copper metal powder is a versatile material with applications across numerous industries due to its excellent electrical and thermal conductivity, corrosion resistance, and antimicrobial properties. In the electrical and electronics industry, it is used for conductive coatings on circuit boards, electromagnetic shielding, and in sintered components like electrical contacts and connectors. It is also a key material in the production of conductive inks and paints, where it provides high conductivity and durability.

In metallurgy and powder metallurgy, copper powder is used to produce sintered metal parts, including self-lubricating bearings, friction materials for brake pads and clutches, and structural components. It is often alloyed with elements like tin, zinc, or nickel to enhance properties such as strength, springiness, and corrosion resistance, making it suitable for automotive and aerospace applications. Copper powder is also used in the production of bronze and brass alloys.

The powder is increasingly important in additive manufacturing and 3D printing, where it enables the creation of complex, lightweight, and precise metal parts with high thermal and electrical conductivity. It is used in metal injection molding (MIM) and laser/electron beam additive manufacturing (SLM/EBM) processes.

Copper powder serves as a catalyst in various chemical reactions, particularly in the petrochemical industry for hydrogenation and oxidation processes, and in the synthesis of specialty chemicals and environmental applications like catalytic converters. It is also used in the production of copper compounds such as copper sulfate and copper nitrate.

In coatings and surface treatments, copper powder provides antibacterial surfaces for use in hospitals and public transport, corrosion-resistant finishes for metal protection, and decorative metallic sheens in paints and varnishes. It is applied via thermal spraying, mechanical plating, or metallizing guns to create durable, protective layers.

Other applications include use in brazing pastes and filler materials for joining metal components, in lubricants to reduce friction, in water treatment for disinfection and filtration, and in medical applications such as wound dressings and antimicrobial coatings. It is also used in art and decorative applications, including metallic pigments, sculptures, and jewelry making. Additionally, copper powder is being explored for use in energy storage technologies like lithium-ion batteries, fuel cells, and supercapacitors.
