Copper Plated Graphite Description
Copper Plated Graphite refers to a material that consists of a layer of copper plated onto a graphite substrate. This combination of materials brings together the properties of copper and graphite, each contributing specific characteristics to the overall material.
Graphite is a form of carbon known for its excellent electrical conductivity, thermal stability, and lubricating properties. Copper, on the other hand, is a metal with high electrical conductivity and good thermal conductivity. By plating graphite with copper, you can create a material that benefits from the electrical and thermal properties of both substances.
Copper-plated Graphite is often used in various applications, including electronics, where the combination of graphite's electrical conductivity and copper's enhanced conductivity can be advantageous. Additionally, the material may find use in applications where both good thermal stability and electrical performance are required. The copper plating provides a protective layer and can enhance the overall mechanical strength of the graphite substrate.
