​Main areas of copper applications in ingots.

​Copper is a transition metal and has an atom with incomplete electron shells, which is why it has variable valency and forms monovalent and divalent compounds. Copper's melting point is 1083°C, boiling point is 2600°C, and the vapour pressure at 1000°C is 8.6x10^-5 mm Hg. Copper has high electrical conductivity (with electrical resistance of 1.68 μΩ*cm) and thermal conductivity (0.941 cal/cm*°C*sec).
Thanks to its high electrical and thermal conductivity, sufficient flexibility and mechanical strength, pure copper is one of the necessary materials for electronics. Copper is used to make electrodes for powerful generator tubes, but the copper must contain a minimal amount of impurities such as oxygen and substances that decrease electrical and thermal conductivity, such as chromium, vanadium, manganese, titanium, zirconium, niobium, and so on.
Pure copper is used to make a series of parts for vacuum devices and equipment used in electronics. The purity of such copper in terms of negligible impurities should be at least 99.999% Cu. The use of such high-purity copper can be of interest in making ultra-thin wires and strips, copper mirrors, thermal bridges, and other products (especially those operating at low temperatures), in electronics (micro/nano, radiation-resistant), nanophotonics, chemistry, and other fields.
Modern industry needs not only high-quality colored metal products but also simple transportation and easy usability of products.
A copper ingot is a brownish-red block of trapezoidal shape. It has many similarities to a copper bar. The main difference is that ingots are used for colored metal products and precious metal products, while bars are associated with black metal products.
Copper is a malleable and lightweight metal with one of the highest electrical conductivity levels. It does not rust, nor does it decay from interacting with water and air. Moreover, this metal is characterized by the following properties:
The product is used as a raw material for processing and for the production of products applied in industries such as:· Industry;· Electrotechnics;· Construction;· Creation of equipment for domestic and special purposes, mechanical engineering, aircraft engineering;· Production of components and parts, and much more.
