Description

General description

Copper is a versatile metal crucial in catalysis and material science. Its excellent electrical and thermal conductivity, ductility, and corrosion resistance make it ideal for conductive materials. Additionally, copper serves as a catalyst in various chemical reactions, facilitating electron transfer and promoting redox processes, including reduction, cross-coupling, and "click" chemistry, such as copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition reactions.
