Wire breaks in copper: a classification and analysis

$15.00

A classification system for various wire breaks that occur in copper wire is presented. The types of breaks include inclusion breaks, inclusion-absent breaks, macroporosity, and various types of fracture (sliver, checks, cuppy, tension, and weld break). Each type is discussed, and scanning electron micrographs are presented.
