After the aging treatment, the tensile strength can reach 1400 MPa (an increase of nearly 10 times compared to pure copper), while maintaining a 22% IACS conductivity and a 3% elongation rate. This unique combination of properties enables it to consistently dominate in critical components with strict requirements.
