Thermal Conductivity Copper has an extremely high thermal conductivity. Nanoshel Copper Foam in Lithium-ion Battery is used in very high performance heat exchangers where weight and cost are of low priority. Because of the greater surface area of Nanoshel copper foam heat transfer to fluids flowing through the foam is greatly accelerated over solid copper and copper fins.
Nanoshel copper metallic foams are highly resistant to atmospheric corrosion and to corrosion in potable water. Copper is also resistant to many organic and inorganic materials, and is well known for excellent corrosion resistance.
