Need some metals that dont corrode but conduct electricity

its for school
I know gold is one because im a pc nerd but thats too expensive

[Ad Bot]

[Master Matthew²]

Silver-Alloys

Silver-Alloys

Silver also corrodes
And is also p expensive

[Doughboy]

gold.

[Ipquarx]

Why does it have to not corrode? Is it going to be in water for long periods of time or something?

[crazies alt]

gold i think
gold corrodes but it doesnt in a way that destroys itsself if im correct

Yeah
Also gold is too expensive ;-;

Does aluminium work?
It does conduct but ik not sure if it corrodes
Its used on cars and it can rain on your car so iduno

[Zloff]

just use copper and seal any exposed contact points with plastidip

[Anybody]

idk, maybe copper that everything is p much wired with

[Gytyyhgfffff]

copper corrodes forgetin bad
for example the statue of liberty
it used to be copper colored but look what happened to it

but sealing it with stuff should work but i wouldn't know

[Master Matthew²]

What about adamantium?

Also the wire has to be in water without insulator
Gotta research if theres some way to conduct electricity trough a wire without it going apestuff in water

[Gytyyhgfffff]

it has to be insulated if you want it to send a current through it but not send a current through the water

[Pastrey Crust]

As far as I know, every conductive material will solubilize in water as an oxide or a salt. Some might take longer than others. You can try using tin cables or stainless steel. Copper and iron will oxide very easily. You could use aluminum but you have to weld fast because it has an oxide layer protecting it. You can sandpaper it off but it will form once again.

yeah this
also aluminum doesn't corrode like other metals because it can form its own protective layer, but eventually it'll corrode
