Sorry if this belongs in my last post on the P3125 heatsink.<P>Anyway- there's been discussion in this forum about corrosion issues with copper and aluminum next to each other. My question: do I ...

But as good a conductor as aluminum is, it’s still only about 60% the conductivity of copper, so aluminum wire for branch circuits needs to be stepped up to the next AWG size — 12 AWG for 15 ...

With sustainability becoming a growing priority, demand for secondary aluminum, or recycled aluminum, also is increasing give its 95 percent lower energy consumption than that of primary aluminum.

In a new approach to studying atmospheric corrosion on copper, researchers at the Department of Energy’s Sandia National Laboratories are putting multiple corrosion experiments on a single ...

That was exactly the right question. Thank you! Copper rose above $1/pound in January of 1974. Now it’s $4.68. A US dollar in 1974 is currently worth $5.38.

When the American copper premium over the international benchmark surged 138% in one trading day, it was more than a sign of market turbulence it was a historic divergence that had the potential to ...

A new report by Wood Mackenzie predicts that the usage of aluminum, copper, and zinc in the solar power sector will double by 2040, thus prompting an increase in demand. “Base metals are an ...

This is different from two other common approaches: using copper tubes with aluminum fins, or aluminum tubes with spiny fins wrapped around them. This article details microchannel technology and was ...

And China is likely to need 100,000-250,000 tonnes less copper this year, Goldman Sachs has estimated, because the authorities released quality standards for low-voltage aluminum alloy power ...
