This paper studies the preparation of Copper powder from Copper Sulphate aqueous solution(CuSO4.5H2O), sulfuric acid (H2SO4) and copper chloride (CuCl2.2H2O)by using the process of electro-deposition. Process of Powder deposition have been investigated for copper powder, it is a fine layer on cathode electrode by using the value of different from current densities (0.12, 0.14, 0.16, and 0.18) A/cm2 .as it is noticed the weight of the powder rises with there is of current density. Diffractions of X-ray (XRD) revealed high crystallinity and pure copper powder not contain impurity or oxides. Size of the Crystallite has been measured by Scherrer's Formula about (38.44 -43.161) nm. Optical microscopes have revealed the particles of copper have dendritic shapes. The size of Particles analyzer measured the size of a particle which is about (2.4 – 8.7) μm.
