T1 Copper Wire

T1 Copper wires with a cylindrical shape are the most common wires used in electronic components. Therefore, samples of these wires were selected for integration with textiles; however, twisted and coaxial wires were also considered for future applications. Three types of enamel-coated wires each having a different resistance, diameter and colour of coating were selected for integration into textile fabrics. T1 Copper wire is used in leads for incandescent lamps. Its high-temperature strength retention capability allows glass-to-metal seals to be made without abnormal softening of the leads. This in turn eliminates the need for expensive molybdenum support wires. Superior strength of the leads enables reduction in lead diameter to save material. Different copper wires are determined by the maximum resistance, and their working temperature is 20°C. Feature: Copper wire has high plasticity and can be bent repeatedly, but it has a disadvantage: it is thick and soft. It has high ductility, breaking strength, electrical conductivity and corrosion resistance.
