Definition and Scope: Oxygen-free copper, also known as oxygen-free high thermal conductivity (OFHC) copper, is a type of high-purity copper that contains minimal oxygen content. This purity level of copper is achieved through a process of electrolysis, which removes oxygen from the copper to below 0.001%. Oxygen-free copper is highly sought after for its superior electrical conductivity, thermal conductivity, and corrosion resistance compared to regular copper. It is commonly used in various industries such as electronics, telecommunications, power generation, and aerospace for applications where high conductivity and reliability are essential. The market for oxygen-free copper is experiencing steady growth driven by several key factors. The increasing demand for high-performance electronic devices and components, such as semiconductors, printed circuit boards, and connectors, is fueling the need for oxygen-free copper due to its superior electrical conductivity. Additionally, the growing investments in infrastructure development, particularly in the telecommunications and power sectors, are driving the demand for oxygen-free copper for cables and wiring applications. Furthermore, the rising adoption of electric vehicles and renewable energy systems is expected to further boost the demand for oxygen-free copper in the coming years. Overall, the market trend for oxygen-free copper is poised for continued growth as industries increasingly prioritize efficiency and reliability in their operations.
