its content of hard copper oxides (Cu2O) with sizes of 5÷10 µm, which, for very smallwire diameters, significantly decrease their ductility. Electrolytic Tough Pitch Copper isnot suitable for case hardening. This material can be bent, soldered, drilled, riveted, andformed to almost any configuration. ETP Copper is available in round bar, squares, flatrectangular (bus bar), and certain profile shapes.Literature [Ref: 316, 409, 410, 411, 412, 413, 414, 325, 411, 254, 342, 340, 415, 268,347, 343, 345, 344, 143, 341, 346]

* Chemical composition measured for wire rod (diameter 8.00 mm) obtained fromContirod technology

Composition limits: 99.90 Cu min (silver counted as copper). Silver has little effect onmechanical and electrical properties but does raise the recrystallization temperature andtends to produce a fine-grain copper. Iron as present in commercial copper, has no effecton mechanical properties, but even traces of iron can cause C11000 to be slightlyferromagnetic. Sulfur causes spewing and unsoundness, and is kept below 0.003% inordinary refinery practice. Selenium and tellurium are usually considered undesirableimpurities but may be added to improve machinability. Bismuth creates brittleness inamounts greater than 0.001%. Lead should not be present in amounts greater than0.005% if the copper is to be hot rolled. Cadmium is rarely present; its effect is totoughen copper without much loss in conductivity. Arsenic decreases the conductivity ofcopper noticeably, although it is often added intentionally to copper not used in electricalservice because it increases the toughness and heat resistance of the metal. Antimony issometimes added to the copper when a high recrystallization temperature is desired[Ref: 316, 409, 412, 254, 415, 343, 344]

Remarks: The effect of foreign atoms on the recrystallization temperature is stronglyconnected with the type of foreign atoms.

Other

C11000 has excellent corrosion resistanceto weathering and very good resistance to

many chemicals. It is often usedspecifically for corrosion resistance. It issuitable for use with most waters, and canbe used underground because it resists soilcorrosion. It resists non-oxidising mineraland organic acids, caustic solutions and

saline solutions. Depending onconcentration and specific conditions ofexposure, copper generally resists: acidsmineral acids such as hydrochloric andsulphuric acids; organic acids such asacetic acid (including acetates and

vinegar), carbolic, citric, formic, oxalic,tartaric and fatty acids; acidic solutions

containing sulphur, such as the sulphurousacid and sulphite solutions used in pulp

mills. Alkalies fused sodium and potassiumhydroxide; concentrated and dilute caustic

solutions. Salt solutions aluminiumchloride, aluminium sulphate, calciumchloride, copper sulphate, sodiumcarbonate, sodium nitrate, sodium

sulphate, zinc sulphate. Waters all potablewaters, many industrial and mine waters,

seawater and brackish water. Thecorrosion resistance of C11000 is notadequate for: ammonia, amines and

ammonium salts; oxidizing acids such aschromic and nitric acids and their salts;

ferric chloride; persulphates andperchlorates; mercury and mercury salts.Copper may also corrode in aerated nonoxidising acids such as sulphuric and aceticacids, although it is practically immunefrom these acids if air is completely

excluded. Copper is not suitable for usewith acetylene, which can react to form anacetylide which is explosive. C11000 isconsidered to be immune to stress

corrosion cracking in ammonia and thesimilar media which cause season cracking

in brass and other copper alloys.

ETP copper corrosion in the formic and carboxylic acid

Two experiments were performed in which the relative humidity was kept constantduring a major part of the exposure and only the formic acid concentration was varied.Three Cu-500 nm and three Cu-85 nm sensors were exposed to air at 80% and 60% RH,respectively, with increasing acid concentrations. It should be noted that due to the useof different permeation tubes with formic acid, the concentrations were slightly differentin the two experiments. An example of the corrosion depth record for a Cu-500 nmsensor is plotted in Fig. below. The other records were similar. The experiment started inclean air at 15% RH. The corrosion rate was below the detection limit until the relativehumidity was increased to 70%. The corrosion rate stabilized at about 0.01 nm/day after

4 days and did not change even though the relative humidity was increased to 80% RH.Formic acid did not have a dramatic effect on copper corrosion when present atconcentrations from 10 to 220 ppb. When the formic acid concentration was increased to460 ppb, the corrosion rate changed to 0.05 nm/day. It stayed at this level at 1000 ppbas well. An additional increase in the corrosion rate to 0.14 nm/day was recorded at themaximal formic acid concentration of 1590 ppb. The corrosion rate decreased graduallyto low values when the formic acid concentration was lowered to 190, 80 and 0 ppb. Cu-85 nm sensors were used in a similar experiment with a lower maximal relative humidityof 60%. Corrosion rates extracted from stabilized parts of the corrosion depth vs. timerecords are given in Table below. Analogously to the previous experiment at 80% RH, thecorrosion rate of copper only increased above about 0.01 nm/day when the concentrationof formic acid was raised from 210 ppb to 420 ppb. Indeed, the increase was strongerunder the wetter conditions. Whereas the corrosion rate continued to increase in morecontaminated air at 80% RH, it remained nearly constant at 0.04 ± 0.01 nm/day at 60%RH until the formic acid concentration was raised to 2880 ppb [Ref: 604].

Values shown in table are typical for all tough pitch, oxygen-free, phosphorus-deoxidizedand arsenical coppers. Copper does not exhibit an endurance limit under fatigue loadingand, on the average, will fracture in fatigue at the stated number of cycles whensubjected to an alternating stress equal to the corresponding fatigue strenght (see Fig.)[Ref: 254]

Rotating-beam fatigue strength of Cu-ETP (C11000) wire, 2 mm in diameter, H80 temper[Ref: 254]

The fatigue strength is defined as the maximum bending stress amplitude which amaterial withstands for 107 load cycles under symmetrical alternate load withoutbreaking. It is dependent on the temper tested and is about 1/3 of the tensile strength[Ref: 419].
