C1990HC ― High Conductivity Titanium Copper Alloy
C1990 (HC) High conductivity titanium copper
Overview
C1990 (HC) is high conductivity titanium copper that maintains the superior mechanical properties of conventional titanium copper (C1990 alloy) while improving electrical conductivity from 13% to 20%. Since the chemical composition is the same as titanium copper alloys C1990 and C1990HP, there is no need for separate management of scrap for recycling.
C1990 (HC) has electrical conductivity, strength, and bend formability similar to beryllium copper (mill-hardened material), along with stress relaxation resistance superior to that of beryllium copper. Well suited to use as a material for electronic parts such as high-end switches, connectors, battery terminals, and jacks, it can be used as an alternative material to beryllium copper (mill-hardened material).
Features
- 1.Electrical conductivity (20% IACS) superior to conventional titanium copper
- 2.High bend formability along with high strength (Yield strength 900 MPa)
(MBR/t = Minimum bend radius/Thickness = 0)- Typical values at 0.1 mm thickness
- 3.Superior stress relaxation resistance (stress relaxation rate 5% at 150℃, 1,000 hours)
- 4.High recyclability
Since the chemical composition is the same as conventional titanium copper alloy C1990, there is no need to manage scrap separately.
