C11600 copper strip is a silver-containing copper alloy material characterised by its excellent mechanical and electrical conductivity. By adding a small amount of silver to copper, C11600 copper strip not only increases the softening temperature and creep strength, but also maintains good electrical and thermal conductivity and plasticity. This material is widely used in electrical, electronic and communication industries due to its excellent strength and toughness, and has become an indispensable and important material in modern industry.
In addition to its excellent mechanical and electrical conductivity, C11600 copper strip also has good antimicrobial properties due to the silver element it contains. This makes C11600 copper strip widely used in the medical field, such as surgical instruments, medical devices and dental materials. Its antimicrobial properties can effectively kill bacteria and viruses, ensuring patient safety and hygiene. In addition, due to its unique colour and texture, C11600 copper strip also has a place in the architectural and decorative fields, and is often used to make decorations, sculptures and architectural components.
