Copper alloys

Copper is a key material in electrical and installation engineering due to its excellent thermal and electrical conductivity. Its good malleability also makes it popular with artists, while it is widely used as a material for coins. As an alloy component, copper has a wide range of applications. When alloyed with zinc, it forms brass, which has a higher degree of corrosion protection and hardness than pure copper.
