Typical physical properties for copper alloy C101 Property | Value | Density | 8.91 g/cm3 | Melting Point | 1083 °C | Modulus of Elasticity | 117 GPa | Electrical Resistivity | 0.0171x10-6 Ω.m | Thermal Conductivity | 391.1 W/m.K at 100°C | Thermal Expansion | 16.9x10-6 /K at 100°C | Alloy Designations HC copper corresponds to the following designations: CEN | BS | UNS | ISO | CW004A | C101 | C11000 | Cu-ETP | Corrosion Resistance Corrosion resistance is either good or excellent in most environments and atmospheres other than those containing ammonia ions. Fabrication Cold Working C101 can be readily cold worked. When in the annealed condition, it can be readily bent to shape and has excellent ductility. It work hardens relatively slowly and can be annealed in neutral or oxidising atmospheres. Hot Working C101 is very readily hot worked. Heat Treatment Solution treatment or annealing can be done by rapid cooling after heating to 370-650°C. Machinability C101 has a machinability rating of 20 when Alloy 360 FC Brass is 100. Welding Soldering of C101 is excellent. Brazability and butt welding are also rated as good. Gas shielded arc welding has a fair rating. All other welding processes are not recommended. Applications C101 is typically used in: · General engineering · Electronics · Automotive · Domestic Appliances · Cold formed components |
