Q&A about Copper: Thermal and Mechanical Properties

We explain the elongation in response to the temperature rise of copper, as well as the linear expansion coefficient and methods for calculating thermal expansion!

On the Japan Copper Center's website, we have published a Q&A regarding the "thermal and mechanical properties" of copper. We introduce questions such as "How does copper expand with temperature increase?" and "When bending copper pipes, at what temperature do they become soft?" Additionally, there are questions about the coefficient of linear expansion, methods for calculating thermal expansion, and thermal conductivity. Please take a look. 【Published Q&A (Excerpt)】 ■ It is said that copper pots have good thermal conductivity; what types of dishes are they suitable for? ■ How much does the flare section of copper pipes used in refrigeration systems expand due to temperature changes? ■ How does the crystal structure of copper change when annealed (heat-treated)? ■ Regarding the thermal insulation properties of copper. *For more details, please feel free to contact us.
