Core Advantages

1. High Current Capacity: Ideal for power transmission systems (e.g., busbars).

2. Hydrogen Compatibility: Controlled oxygen content prevents intergranular cracks.

3. Precision Machining: Fine-grained structure minimizes deformation.


Applications

  • Power Industry: HV cables, transformer windings.

  • Electronics: Vacuum tube components, semiconductor packaging.

  • Chemical Equipment: Corrosion-resistant pipes, evaporators.

  • Vacuum Devices: Magnetron anodes, traveling-wave tubes.


Processing Guidelines

1. Cold Working: Anneal at 500–700°C (under N₂/Ar protection).

2. Hot Working: Temperature range 750–875°C, final rolling ≥600°C.

3. Welding: Avoid reducing atmospheres >370°C; use silver-based filler.
