LayrrCopper - Copper
CAS No. : 7440-50-8

In the world of materials science, Copper is the standard by which all other conductors are measured. But in powder form, maintaining that conductivity requires rigor.

Layrr Materials Copper Powder is engineered for applications where efficiency is non-negotiable. Whether you are formulating conductive inks or printing complex heat exchangers, our copper retains the high electrical (IACS) and thermal conductivity values of bulk copper. We prioritize purity and morphology, ensuring that surface oxides—the enemy of conductivity—are kept to an absolute minimum.

Material Behaviour & Processing

Copper is historically difficult to process in additive manufacturing due to its high thermal diffusivity and high reflectivity of standard infrared lasers.

Our powder grades are characterized to address these specific processing challenges:

• High Purity (>99.9%): Low oxygen content ensures that electrical resistance remains low and sintering windows remain predictable.

• Morphology Control: whether spherical for additive manufacturing or dendritic for conductive pastes, we ensure the particle shape matches the deposition method.

• Thermal Management: Exceptional heat dissipation properties make this the ideal feedstock for next-generation cooling solutions.

The Layrr Advantage: Advanced Manufacturing Ready

We supply copper powder optimized for the frontier of fabrication:

1. Binder Jetting (BJ) & DED:

Our powders feature the flow characteristics required for the rapid spreading in Binder Jetting and the consistent feeding needed for Directed Energy Deposition (DED).

        2. Printed Electronics:

For conductive pastes and inks, we offer fine cuts suited for micro-fabrication and low-temperature sintering, enabling flexible circuitry and RFID production.

        3. Catalysis & Research:

Used as a high-surface-area precursor for copper-oxide fuel cell catalysts and alloy synthesis.

Critical Applications

• Thermal Management: 3D printed heat sinks and active cooling channels for high-performance computing (HPC).
• Electronics: Conductive pastes for PCBs and flexible hybrid electronics.
• Aerospace: Rocket engine combustion liners requiring rapid heat transfer.
• Induction Heating: Specialized coils and conductive components.
