Exhibition: "Copper in our life"

Copper, one of the fundamental metals for current technology, is an excellent conductive metal of heat and electricity and more efficient than other alternatives. During the last two decades, copper has been incorporated directly or indirectly ways into our lives, offering countless benefits to homes of the entire planet. Its technological applications are very wide and this metal has an active role in many elements.

For instance, copper provides maximum energy savings. Copper pipes have the highest levels of durability and resistance; they are even capable of improving the quality of the water by being in contact with it. Other metals and elements emit damaging substances with the passage of time, that’s why copper is very used on water, heating and air conditioning facilities. In addition, hermetic connections and the fire resistance of copper pipes make them appropriated for the transport of gas, and as copper pipe is incombustible, in case of fire, it kept locked up the fluid that carries, does not emit toxic gases and prevents the spread of the fire.

When copper is exposed to air, it forms a thin protective oxide layer that prevents any reaction; when exposed to a wet atmosphere during a long period of time, they form green copper salts that protect against corrosion. For this reason, copper is the most important non-ferrous metal in terms of consumption and an essential material for electric cables. Without copper electrical and electronic components, it would not be possible the intelligent management of motors, extensive sensors or information and entertainment systems in motor vehicles. A mid-size car contains around 22.5 kg of copper.
