Electrolytic copper (EC) refers to the process in which blister copper (containing 99% copper) is made into a thick plate in advance as the anode, pure copper is made into a thin plate as the cathode, and sulfuric acid (H2SO4) andCopper Sulfate(CuSO4) as a mixture ofElectrolyte。 After electrification, copper dissolves into copper ions (Cu) from the anode and moves to the cathode. When it reaches the cathode, it will obtain electrons and precipitate pure copper at the cathode. It is of high quality and can be used to make electrical products.
In 2020, China imported 11.9 million tonnes of copper-bearing metal, including copper concentrate, blister copper, electrolytic copper and copper scrap.
In 2021, China's copper imports will equal or even exceed the unprecedented import scale reached in 2020, thanks to economic growth and the rebound of manufacturing industry after the epidemic.
Zhonghan International Trade has listed the purchase and sale of electrolytic copper as a long-term development product in the domestic and foreign markets, giving full play to its own policy and capital advantages, and striving to develop this business.
