You can flatten it, bend it, melt it and harden it again -- yet it’ll still remain one of the most important metals on Earth. This week is all about copper. * Holding down the 29th spot on the ...

It’s affordable and easy to work with, but can’t even come close to comparing to copper in terms of conductivity. It’s only 59.8% as conductive as silver, leaving it far short of what copper delivers.

Researchers at the Tokyo University of Science have found that adding copper to a sodium-ion battery cathode material improves stability and therefore, lifespan. The study, published in Advanced ...

Scientists from the Interface Science Department at the Fritz Haber Institute have studied how applying pulsed electric potential treatments to copper single crystal surfaces as model catalysts can ...
