Oxygen-free copper (OFC), also called oxygen-free electrical conductivity copper, is a class of hammered copper alloys that have been electrolytically refined to have an oxygen content of less than 0.001%. Oxygen-free copper is extremely magnetic and is widely utilized in industrial applications such as electrical and semiconductors, automotive, thermal and optical, and many more. Oxygen-free copper is a unique tool with exceptional intrinsic qualities such as excellent thermal and electrical conductivity, flexibility, fatigue strength, compressive strength, relatively low instability at vacuum chamber, and ease of soldering.
Oxygen-free copper is becoming more popular, owing to its excellent thermal and electrical conductivity in the electrical and electronics industries. It's often utilized in electric and electronic applications including printed circuit boards (PCBs), semiconductors, and superconductors, these factors are likely to drive the growth of the global oxygen-free copper market. However, high processing costs and the emergence of viable replacements such as electrolytic tough pitches (ETP) copper are expected to stymie worldwide market expansion. Furthermore, the rising spectrum of applications in numerous sectors and the rising electrical and electronics sectors in emerging nations are likely to provide attractive growth possibilities over the assessment period.

On the basis of grade, the global market is further distributed into oxygen-free (OF) and oxygen-free electronics (OFE). The oxygen-free (OF) segment has the biggest oxygen-free copper market share and is predicted to expand the quickest over the projected period. Cu-OF is a 99.95 percent pure copper with 0.001 percent oxygen content and a minimal IACS conductance of 100 percent. It is found in magnetometers, electrostatic, and other superconductors. During the study period, the oxygen-free electronic (OFE) segment grew significantly. Cu-OFE is a 99.99 percent pure copper alloy with 0.005% oxygen concentration and a minimal IACS conductivity of 101 percent. It is one of the most costly oxygen-free copper grades. On the basis of product, the global market is further segmented into wires, strips, busbars and rods, and others. The wire segment had the most market share and it is predicted to increase at the quickest rate during the projected period. This is mostly due to the increasing demand for oxygen-free copper cables in a variety of end-use sectors, including electrical & electronics engineering, as well as automotive, due to its strong conductive qualities. Strips are predicted to expand significantly throughout the predicted period. Oxygen-free copper strips are commonly utilized in electric car motors and electronic systems. Busbars and rods are mostly utilized in transmission lines, transformers, and linking generators.
On the basis of end-users, the global oxygen-free copper market is divided into electronics & electrical, automotive, and others. In terms of volume and value, the electronics and electrical category accounted for the biggest market share in 2019; this is primarily due to the widespread use of oxygen-free copper in electrical & mechanical applications such as printed circuit boards (PCBs), semiconductors, and superconductors. Oxygen-free copper is frequently utilized in automobile spare parts and components. Increasing worldwide sales of electric cars are predicted to boost the automotive segment's overall growth throughout the predicted period. During the projection period, this category is predicted to have the greatest CAGR. Other sectors include medical equipment and gadgets, electricity generation, and transport.
The market is segmented on the basis of the grade, product, end-user, and region. The global oxygen-free copper market is expected to witness decent growth during the forecast period.
