Copper Phosphorus is used as a deoxidant, alloying agent, and wetting agent for the copper industry, and as a nucleant for the aluminum industry. CuP is an alloy of elemental copper and elemental phosphorus free of residuals, such as iron, silicon, arsenic, selenium, nickel, tin, zinc, or lead. It improves the predictability of your process and eliminates the potential for hydrogen embrittlement. Additional main applications of CuP are; Phophorus treatment of hypereutectic AlSi foundry alloys and Increasing the fluidity of copper alloys such as phosphor bronze and various brazing alloys.
Copper Phosphorus is in general in the forms of Waffle Ingots and Shots. The most common Copper Phosphorus Grades are; CuP8, CuP10 and CuP15, that these numbers next to each grade are showing the Phosphorus content with the balance of Copper.
