Core Advantages

1. High Conductivity & Hydrogen Resistance: Ideal for vacuum devices and H₂ brazing.

2. Thermal Stability: Recrystallization temperature up to 300°C.

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


Applications

  • Power Industry: Cables, busbars, transformer windings.

  • Electronics: IC lead frames, vacuum tube components.

  • Chemical Equipment: Evaporators, corrosion-resistant pipes.

  • Aerospace: Waveguide components, engine cooling 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.
