Abstract Although Cu–Al2O3 composites have good comprehensive performance, higher mechanical properties and arc erosion resistance are still required to meet heavy-duty applications such as electromagnetic railguns. In this work, a novel hybrid SiCw/Cu–Al2O3 composite was successfully prepared by combining powder metallurgy and internal oxidation. The microstructure and mechanical behavior of the SiCw/Cu–Al2O3 composite were studied. The results show that nano-Al2O3 particles and micro-SiCw are introduced into the copper matrix simultaneously. Well-bonded interfaces between copper matrix and Al2O3 particles or SiCw are obtained with improved mechanical and arc erosion resistance of SiCw/Cu–Al2O3 composite. The ultimate tensile strength of the SiCw/Cu–Al2O3 composite is 508.9 MPa, which is 7.9 and 56.1% higher than that of the Cu–Al2O3 composite and SiCw/Cu composite, respectively. The strengthening mechanism calculation shows that Orowan strengthening is the main strengthening mechanism of the SiCw/Cu–Al2O3 composite. Compared with Cu–Al2O3 composite, the hybrid SiCw/Cu–Al2O3 composite has lower arc time and energy and better arc stability.

Under the liquid-phase hot-pressing technique, the multi-scale titanium diboride matrix nanocomposite ceramic tool materials were fabricated by adding both micro-scale and nano-scale TiN particles into TiB2 with Ni and Mo as sintering aids. The effect of content of nano-scale TiN and sintering temperature on the microstructure and mechanical properties was studied. The result showed that flexural strength and fracture toughness of the composites increased first, and then decreased with an increase of the content of nano-scale TiN, while the Vickers hardness decreased with an increase of the content of nano-scale TiN. The optimal mechanical properties were flexural strength 742 MPa, fracture toughness 6.5 MPa•m1/2 and Vickers hardness 17GPa respectively. The intergranular and transgranular fracture mode were observed in the composites. The metal phase can cause ductility toughening and crack bridging, while crack deflection and transgranular fracture mode could be brought by micro-scale TiN and nano-scale TiN respectively.

Abstract Physico-mechanical and structural properties of electrocontact sintered copper matrix- carbon nanoparticles composite powder materials are presented. Scanning electron microscopy revealed the influence of preliminary mechanical activation of the powder system on distribution of carbon nanoparticles in the metal matrix. Mechanical activation ensures mechanical bonding of nanoparticles to the surface of metal particles, thus giving a possibility for manufacture of a composite with high physico-mechanical properties.

Copper Based Alloy

Copper-matrix composites reinforced with SiC particles are prepared by mechanical alloying. The microstructure characteristics, relative density, hardness, tensile strength, electrical conductivity, thermal conductivity and wear properties of the composites are investigated in this paper. The results indicate that the relative density, macro-hardness and mechanical properties of composites are improved by modifying the surface of SiC particles with Cu and Ni . The electrical conductivity and thermal conductivity of composites, however, are not obviously improved. For a given volume fraction of SiC , the Cu / SiC ( Ni ) has higher mechanical properties than Cu / SiC ( Cu ). The wear resistance of the composites are improved by the addition of SiC . The composites with optimized interface have lower wear rate.

The Matrix

To reduce the agglomeration of graphene and enhance the interface bonding between reduced graphene oxide (RGO) and copper substrate, copper plating on the graphene surface was prepared by the in-situ reduction method. To improve the strength of the copper matrix, the microalloying strategy of adding titanium to the matrix was adopted. By changing the mass fraction of titanium in the matrix, the optimum ratio of RGO was obtained( Ti mass fraction was 5:1), and the tensile strength was maximized. The results show that RGO did not agglomerate obviously in the matrix. At the same time, the composite powder could be densified rapidly by spark plasma sintering (SPS), which could effectively protect the original distribution of the additive phase in the matrix. In this paper, Cu@RGO/Cu-Ti was prepared and the strengthening mechanism of the composites discussed, providing a new insights into the interface design and carbide formation mechanism of advanced graphene/copper composites with high mechanical properties.
