COPPER NUGGET
PHOSPHORUS BEARING COPPER ANODE (Cu-DXP)
OXYGEN FREE COPPER ANODE (Cu-OF)
Ideal Anode Material For Copper Electroplating Processes
All types of nuggets are produced in Outokumpu Upcast® process.Cu-OF nuggets have very high copper purity.
Phosphorus bearing copper anodes are alloyed by adding phosphorus into pure molten copper to have homogeneously dispersed alloy. Cu-DXP copper nuggets are ideal for printed circuit board (PCB) plating because of excellent deposition properties.Phosphorus content of Cu-DXP nuggets are between 0,04% and 0,06% which are ideal anodes for acidic plating baths.
