The material of kitchen faucet is generally brass, which is the most common pure copper faucet on the market. However, due to the characteristics of the kitchen environment, pure copper faucet is not necessarily the best choice. The outermost layer of pure copper faucet is electroplated, and the role of electroplating is to prevent the brass inside from corrosion and rust. There is a lot of oil smoke in the kitchen, plus greasy hands when washing dishes, as well as skin cleanser, which often needs to clean the faucet. If it is not cleaned in the right way, it is likely to destroy the electroplating layer of the faucet, resulting in corrosion and rust of the faucet.
