Alchemy,

These are not metallic salt solutions, but a suspension of solid Cu particles. Due to the size of the articles and the processing, it has been possible to prevent coagulation of the particles, thus allowing it to be used without clogging components.

Read more into it at Argonne. It's actuall quite interesting, and the figures I quoted are correct. 40% increased thermal transfer. However, this may not be the same as the thermal conductivity as I stated earlier.
