Is there any advantage to copper based antiseize
compound? Does it last any longer?

I don't think of copper as being antiseize
the way I do graphite.

Thanks

There are numerous different metallic (and other) powders used in
antiseize compounds. Metallics such as Nickel, Silver, Copper, and Lead.
Non-metallics such as graphite and "white graphite" (Molybdenum
Disulphide). Each has its own properties and some types are better suited
to certain specific applications than others.
