High-purity electrolytic cathodes with a minimum copper content of 99.9935 percent by weight serve as premium unwrought feedstock for demanding manufacturing applications.
Unwrought electrolytic cathodes of refined copper fall below the 99.9935 percent purity threshold, providing standard-grade raw material for general downstream processing.
Physically divided portions of electrolytic cathodes, rather than whole plates, constitute these unwrought refined copper pieces traded for smelting and refining operations.
