Copper Alloy refers to the pure copper on the basis of adding one or several other elements of the alloy. The copper alloy classification is quite easy to understand. There are many kinds of copper alloy color, non-copper copper alloy types, with different colors, copper alloy mainly purple, yellow, Cyan and other colors. Copper alloys also change color when they are oxidized. Let's talk about the die casting process of copper alloy. An alloy of one or more other elements with different compositions. Do you know it? For example, silicon brass, casting performance is better, the process is characterized by sequential solidification process, in-pouring pouring system, small riser size. There is bronze and aluminum brass, their casting performance is good liquidity, easy to form a concentrated shrinkage cavity, easy to oxidation. Let's talk about the classification of copper alloys right away.

We say under the copper alloy processing material classification: divided into sheet, strip, foil, row, pipe, bar, wire and profiles, such as eight varieties (commonly known as the eight categories) . Generally speaking, when the thickness of the strip is less than 0.1 mm, it is called foil (China's customs said that the thickness is less than 0.15 mm for foil) , coils less than 5 mm in diameter are usually referred to as wire, while those supplied in straight strips are referred to as rods.

6.Development trend of copper alloy
1. High Purity: The main purpose of high purity is to improve the electrical and thermal conductivity of the material as much as possible. The content of copper in industrial copper ranges from 99.90% to 99.95% , then to 99.99% (4n) and even higher, such as ultra-pure copper containing 99.9999% (6n) , the requirement of impurity content is more strict. Such as oxygen (o) content from 0.01% ~ 0.05% reduced to 0.001% ~ 0.006% , up to 0.0002% ~ 0.0003% . Minimizing the influence of impurities on electrical and thermal conductivity. Typical applications include high purity copper for network transmission connections, Takasumi oxygen free copper for electric vacuum devices, precision guidance and high fidelity signal transmission, and single crystal copper and ultra pure copper for superconductors. Compared with polycrystalline copper, the tensile strength of single crystal copper decreased by 24.71% , the elongation increased by 2.39 times, the section shrinkage increased by 4.14 times, the resistivity decreased by 31.7% , less than 1.7210-8 m, and its oxygen content was less than 510-6, hydrogen content less than 0... 510-6, density greater than 8.92 t/m3. Another aspect of the development of copper alloys toward high purity is that the microalloyed copper alloys require Takasumi purification of the copper alloy matrix in order to ensure higher comprehensive properties of the materials. 2. MICROALLOYING: The aim of microalloying is to obtain other properties, such as a significant increase in strength, at the expense of the least conductivity and thermal conductivity. Such as adding about 0.1% Fe (Fe) , MG (MG) , Te (Te) , SI (SI) , AG (AG) , Ti (Ti) , CR (CR) or pickaxe (Zr) , rare earth elements and so on, can improve its strength, hardness, softening temperature or machinability. Microalloyed copper is one of the most popular copper alloy materials. Oxygen toughened copper and high strength and high conductivity copper alloys are the most important microalloyed copper. The concept of oxygen copper is relative to oxygen-free copper, its copper content is above 99.90% , which is equivalent to the general pure copper, but its oxygen content is controlled at 0.005% ~ 0.02% , and its conductivity is above 100% IACS. This is because the right amount of oxygen for the impurities in the intercrystalline elements play a certain role in oxidation and oxidation, to a certain extent, the purification of the Matrix. The most important characteristic of the production of oxygen copper is the low cost of its raw material. The low grade copper scrap is used to produce the same kind of oxygen copper material with high conductivity and heat conductivity. High-strength and high-conductivity copper alloys are favored by material scientists all over the world because of their excellent comprehensive properties, and are the fastest developing copper alloys in recent years. The microalloying elements include P, FE, CR, Zr, Ni, SI, AG, SN, Al and so on. The typical alloy systems include CU-P, CU-FE-P, cu-Ni-Si, cu-Cr-Zr, cu-Ag, cu-Ag something CR, cu-Ag-Zr, cu-Ag-Zr, cu-Ag-Sn and so on. The total content of other components in the alloy can be at least 0.01% ~ 0.1% , and the maximum is generally not more than 3% . Its common characteristic is that the material has high strength and high conductivity. 3. COMPLEX MULTI-COMPONENT ALLOYING: In order to further improve the strength, corrosion resistance, wear resistance and other properties of copper and its alloys, or to meet some special application requirements, on the basis of existing bronze, brass, etc. , to add to five, six elements and other components, to achieve materials of high elasticity, high wear resistance, high corrosion resistance, easy cutting and other functions, multi-component (four or more components) alloying has become another hot topic of copper alloy development, new complex alloy layers emerge in endlessly. Typical alloys include multi-element manganese brass, silicon manganese brass, boron-tin brass, lead-free free-cutting copper alloys, etc. . Its common feature is high strength and toughness, tensile strength can reach 600 ~ 700MPA. For example, HMn59-2-1-0.5(Cu: 58%-59% , Mn: 1.8%-2.2% , Al: 1.4%-1.7% , Fe: 0.36%-0.65% , Si: 0.6%-0.9% , Sn: 0.1%-0.4% , Pb: 0.3%-0.6% , Zn allowance) of new manganese brass, the strength of the control tube is over 600 MPA, the elongation is over 20% , the hardness is over 180% . Aluminum Brass HAl64-5-4-2(Cu: 63.5% ~ 65.5% , AL: 4.5% ~ 6.0% , MN: 3.0% ~ 5.0% , Fe: 2.0% ~ 3.0% , Pb: 0.2% ~ 1.0% , Zn allowance) has a strength of over 750 MPA and a hardness of over 220. The new aluminum bronze Qal 9-5-1-1(Cu: residual, Al: 8.0% ~ 10.0% , NI: 4.0% ~ 6.0% , MN: 0.5% ~ 1.5% , Fe: 0.5% ~ 1.5%) has a strength of 650 MPA, a yield strength of 400 MPA and an elongation of over 14% . The service life of synchronizer rings, high-pressure pump friction pairs or electrode copper wedges made of these materials is one to several times longer than those made of brass or bronze. In recent years, with the improvement of people's awareness of environmental protection, environmental protection has become the theme of World Civilization Development. People pay more attention to the influence of harmful elements such as lead, beryllium, cadmium and arsenic. The development of environment-friendly copper alloy materials such as lead-free free cutting brass, beryllium-free high elastic copper alloy and arsenic-free corrosion-resistant copper alloy has become one of the important development directions of copper alloy materials.
7.. Composite Materials: There are two kinds of copper alloy materials: one is to introduce alloy elements to strengthen copper matrix to form alloy, the other is to introduce a second strengthening phase to form composite. For example, dispersion-strengthened oxygen-free copper is a typical artificial composite material, the commonly used dispersion particles are Al2O3, ZrO2, Y2o3, ThO2 and so on. The method of artificial composite material means that the copper matrix is strengthened by adding the second phase particles, whisker or fiber into the copper matrix, and the copper matrix is strengthened by introducing uniformly distributed fine oxide particles with good thermal stability into the copper matrix. The composition of the second phase is usually less than 1% or even less than 0.01% , but the strengthening effect of the material is very obvious, especially the high temperature strength of the material is greatly improved. For example, cu-2.5% TIB2(volume fraction) , electrical conductivity 76% lacs, tensile strength 675MPA; cu-0.5% al2o3(mass fraction) alloys, the greenhouse strength of the materials can reach 500 ~ 800MPA, electrical conductivity can reach 85% lacs, the strength of the materials can still reach 200 ~ 400MPa after burning hydrogen at 900 °C. The other is in-situ composite (in-situ coincidence material) , which is a kind of composite material in copper matrix through exothermic reaction between elements or between elements and compounds. Compared with the traditional artificial reinforced composites, the strength of this kind of composites is greatly improved, and the toughness and high temperature properties of the composites are better. For example, the cu-20% NB (volume fraction) composite has very high tensile strength, close to 2000PA, the conductivity of cu-18% (mass fraction) is 66.6% lacs, and the tensile strength is 1450MPA. Other composite materials such as Cu-fe, CU-TA system also have high room temperature strength and high temperature strength, the strength of the material can generally reach 800 ~ 1500 MPA.
