What Are The Differences Between Copper Strip, Brass Strip And White Copper Strip

What are the differences between copper strip, brass strip and white copper strip? Next,  Copper Co., Ltd. staff to tell you a simple say!

Copper strip is a copper element that is a tough, soft, malleable mauve and glossy metal. Because it has a rose red color, the oxide film surface formed purple, so it is generally called copper. It contains a certain amount of oxygen, therefore, it is also called oxygen containing copper. Copper is pure industrial copper, melting point 1083℃, no heterogeneous phase transformation, relative density 8.9, 5 times of magnesium, the same volume of mass than ordinary steel about 15%, copper has good weldability, can be made into a variety of semi-finished products and finished products through cold processing and thermoplastic processing.

Copper strip is nickel as the main added element of copper base alloy, silver white, metallic luster, so named copper, copper nickel between each other infinite solid solution, thus forming continuous solid solution, that is, regardless of the proportion of each other, and constant α-single-phase alloy, when the nickel into the red copper, the content of more than 16%, the resulting alloy color will become white as silver, nickel content is higher, The whiter the color. The nickel content of white copper is generally 25%.

Brass strips are alloys made of copper and zinc. Brass made of copper and zinc is called ordinary brass. If it consists of more than two elements, it is called special brass. Brass has a strong wear resistance. Brass is commonly used in the manufacture of valves, water pipes, air conditioning pipes and radiators.
