Main condenser tube sheets and condenser tubes in thermal power plants for the energy industry are made of brass, bronze or cupronickel. Solar heaters are also commonly manufactured using copper tubing.
Copper and copper alloys can be used to manufacture heat exchangers for air conditioners, still pots for watch movements, building decoration components, etc.
In integrated circuits, copper is used instead of aluminum in silicon chips for interconnects and lead frames.
In the shipbuilding industry, copper alloys including aluminum bronze, manganese bronze, aluminum brass, nickel-copper and nickel-copper alloy (Monel alloy) are standard materials for shipbuilding.
Power transmission such as wire cables, transformers, switches, plug-in components and connectors, etc.; communication cables and residential electrical circuits also need to use a large number of copper wires.
In mechanical engineering, in addition to the large amount of copper used in motors, circuits, hydraulic systems, pneumatic systems and control systems, various transmission parts and fixed parts, such as connectors, fasteners, gears, etc.
Bronze is widely used in sculptures and artworks because of its good castability and beautiful appearance.
Certain musical instruments, such as cymbals and bells, are made of bronze because of its good acoustics.
Bronze is used in architectural decorations such as door handles, railings and decorative panels because of its corrosion resistance and beautiful appearance.
Bronze has good wear resistance and low friction coefficient and is often used to make mechanical parts such as bearings, gears and nuts.
Bronze is often used in ship propellers and other marine accessories because of its corrosion resistance and is particularly suitable for marine environments.
Bronze is often used to make medals, commemorative coins and various souvenirs because of its beauty and collection value.
