Copper CuDHP

CuDHP : copper alloy

CuDHP is a thermally refined electrolytic copper alloy which is deoxidised by the addition of phosphorus. Cu DHP has a phosphorus content between 0.013% and 0.050%, which reduces its electrical conductivity and makes it insensitive to reducing atmospheres. With its excellent thermal conductivity, this copper can be soldered without any problems.
