Copper Alloys
Copper alloys are metal alloys with cooper as their main component. While pure copper has a lot of benefits like a great electrical and thermical conductivity, copper alloys have a high resistance against corrosion among other benefits. Each alloy has it’s own strengths and weaknesses and with over 400 copper alloys there are plenty of copper combinations for almost every purpose.
Copper and copper alloys are also best suited for recycling, which is one key area of the Austrian company Montanwerke Brixlegg.
