Comparison with C17200 copper More traditional grade with higher Be content (2 wt%) Used in LEP ring at present TH02 thermo-mechanical treatment Tensile properties at room and low temperatures : improved formability Improved electrical conductivity : C17200/TH02C17110/TH01 C17410/TH02 Total alloying (wt%) 3.2 1.77 0.943 % IACS 22-25 49.3 53.3 LHC Vacuum Design Meeting Karine COUTURIER/EST-SM
Conclusion Advantages of C17110 and C17410 coppers in TH02 state : - higher ductility, improved formability easier product forming simple manufacturing process - higher electrical conductivity improved electrical output compared to more traditional C17200 beryllium copper Are those new coppers interesting for LHC applications ? Is Rp 0.2 value sufficient ? Is material choice still open ? STAINLESS firm propose to visit CERN during the first week of May. LHC Vacuum Design Meeting Karine COUTURIER/EST-SM
