Copper Powder


Copper powder is produced through a water atomization process of molten alloy, primarily copper, and other chemical elements that provide different properties required by our clients. Depending on the water pressure and the flow rate of the molten alloy, the copper powder varies in particle size upon exit. It is classified in mesh units. The larger the mesh size, i.e., the higher the mesh value, the smaller the particle size and the greater the surface coverage. Its main applications are in the milling industry, diamond tools, transportation, particularly for brake components, and chemistry.
