Wire Core Material
Composite Copper: Also known as synthetic copper, it includes copper-clad aluminum and copper-clad steel. This material has a low ignition point, is not heat resistant, and easily generates heat.
Pure Copper: Made entirely from copper materials, it has high flexibility and excellent conductivity but is more expensive.
Tinned Copper: Tinned copper has a layer of tin coated on the copper, which makes it relatively more durable and resistant to oxidation.
Risks of Using Composite Copper
Composite Copper (Copper-Clad Aluminum) Wire: Has high resistance and significant energy (power) loss.
The lifespan of composite copper wire is shorter than that of pure copper: In terms of swinging, stretching, and bending, composite copper is more prone to breakage.
The wire is not durable when left idle: The wire core may not charge, and in severe cases, it may corrode to ash.
Composite copper has poor high-temperature resistance: During fast charging, it may cause the phone to overheat and shut down.
How to Identify Whether the Conductors Inside Data Cables Are Pure Copper, Tinned Copper, Copper-Clad Aluminum, or Copper-Clad Steel
Method 1: Scrape with a knife
Composite Copper: Turns white after scraping with a knife.
Tinned Copper: Shows a brass color after scraping
Identifying Wire Cores：Scrape the surface of the wire core with a knife; different core materials display different colors:
Pure Copper: Has a uniform copper color from inside to outside.
Tinned Copper: Appears brass-colored after scraping.
Copper-Clad Steel and Copper-Clad Aluminum: The cross-section is white, with only a thin outer layer of copper color.
Pure Copper Wire: Appears red.
Copper-Clad Aluminum: Softens and droops, appears whitish and powdery.
Copper-Clad Steel: Sparks when burned and emits a strong odor.
Tinned Copper: Turns black after burning; scraping the surface reveals bright copper color underneath.
Method 2: Burn with fire
Composite Copper: Turns white after scraping with a knife.
Sparks will occur during the burning process.
After burning, the surface turns black; scraping off the surface reveals bright copper underneath
Pure Copper Wire: Appears red. Copper-Clad Aluminum: Softens and droops, turning whitish and powdery.
Copper-Clad Steel: Sparks when burned and emits a strong odor.
Tinned Copper: Turns black after burning; scraping the surface reveals bright copper color underneath.
I ordered on Friday evening and on Monday at 12:30 the package was with me. I have never encountered such a fast order processing.
OMG I LOVE IT!!!
There was a small mistake in the order. In return, I got the correct order and I could keep the wrong one for myself. I ordered on Friday evening and on Monday at 12:30 the package was with me. I have never encountered such a fast order processing.
