Nano copper powder can be defined as the small copper particle size ranged from 10-9 to 10-6 m, including Nano copper particles and micron copper particles. It is brown or purplish micro powder. Owing to its small particle size, large specific surface area, and very high activity, ultrafine copper powder should be stored in inert gas or organic solvent in order to prevent oxidation. Nano copper particles refer to black-brown spherical high surface area metal particles of copper, typically 10-30 nanometers with specific surface area in the 30 – 70 m2/g range. These are available with an average particle size of 70 -100 nm range with a specific surface area of approximately 5 – 10 m2/g as well. Nano copper particles have various applications as an anti-biotic, anti-microbial, and anti-fungal agent when added to plastics, coatings, and textiles, diet supplements with efficient delivery characteristics, high strength metals and alloys.
Whereas, micro copper particles powder is reddish-brown spherical metal particles of copper, typically 400–600 micrometers that contained 10 % weight of copper. Nano copper particles can be used as a substitute for very expensive noble metals used in conductive inks and pastes in printed electronics, displays, and conductive thin film transmission applications, and superficial conductive coating processing of metal and non-ferrous metal.
Covid-19 Impact Analysis
- The coronavirus's unfavorable global effects are already evident, and they will have a big impact on the Nano copper powder market in 2020.
- The World Health Organization has declared a public health emergency after the COVID-19 virus outbreak in December 2019. The disease has spread to over 100 nations and resulted in massive deaths all across the world. Exports & Imports, global manufacturing, tourism, and financial sectors have all been heavily damaged.
- The downward pressure on the global economy, which had previously shown signs of improvement, has escalated once more. The outbreak of the virus has added danger factors to the international economy's already sluggish development. Many international groups have stated that the global economy is experiencing its most difficult moment since the financial crisis.
- The lockdown has resulted in hampering the imports and exports of various goods. Also, the uncertainty created in the market in the consumers’ buying pattern has resulted in hampering of the Nano copper powder market.
Top Impacting Factors
The demand for copper applications is rising in the industry verticals such as computer and information technology, and automobile due to the innovations and technological advancements in the copper industry. Researchers are constantly finding new and inventive uses for copper, especially in the technological field. The innovations are going on due to the potential properties of copper such as the best conductors of electricity. Thus, all computer chip manufacturers are embracing copper. However, the research is still ongoing in search of the latest methods that offer the lowest and least expensive environmental damage to continue, likewise, research to discover new properties of copper nanoparticles and new products. However, the laser ablation used in physical synthesis requires a colloidal solution, which minimizes the chances of oxidation on the surface of the ultrafine copper particles. In a vacuum chamber, it removes or extracts atoms from a solid copper surface through the emission of the laser beam. However, this method is not feasible due to the complexity of the equipment and the use of high energy for the laser. Therefore, the complexities of the physical synthesis of copper can strangle the demand for Nano copper powder in the global market.
