Description

Cu-DHP, also known as SF-Cu or Copper-Deoxidized High Phosphorus, is oxygen-free and a type of copper alloy known for its high corrosion resistance and excellent thermal and electrical conductivity. 

Phosphorus-deoxidized copper has suitable welding and cold bending performance and generally does not tend to “hydrogen disease.” It can be processed and used in a reducing atmosphere, but it is not suitable for processing and use in an oxidizing atmosphere. 

Cu-DHP Grades

C1201, C1220, C12000, C12200, TP1, TP2

TP1 has less residual phosphorus than TP2, so its electrical and thermal conductivity is higher than that of TP2. TP1 and TP2 are mainly applied in pipes, and can also be supplied in plates, strips, rods, and wires. Used as gasoline or gas delivery pipes, drainage pipes, condenser pipes, mine pipes, condensers, evaporators, heat exchangers, and train box parts.
