Abstract The influence of carbon coating on the nanopowder when used as a sintering aid for water-atomized iron powder is explored. Iron nanopowder without such a coating was used as a reference sintering aid to isolate and depict the influence of the carbon coating. Both nanopowder variants were characterized using XPS and HRTEM, and the results showed a core-shell structure for both nanopowder variants. Iron nanopowder is covered by a 3-4 nm thick iron oxide layer, while the carbon-coated nanopowder is encapsulated with a number of nanometric carbon layers. Thermogravimetry carried out in a pure hydrogen environment shows a multipeak behaviour for carbon-coated nanopowder, while a single peak behaviour is observed for the iron nanopowder. This difference was correlated with chemical analysis. Two types of micro/nanobimodal powders were obtained by mixing the nanopowder with water-atomized iron powder. An improved linear shrinkage was observed when carbon-coated iron nanopowder was added. This can be explained by the reduced surface diffusion in the nanopowder due to the carbon coating, which allows the nanopowder to sinter at higher temperatures and improves densification.

We use plasma method syntheisized Carbon coated copper nanoparticles The structure , size distribution and phase composition of the particles were analysised by TEM , XRD and DSC. Meanwhile, The conductivity of carbon-coated copper nanoparticles were measured. Results show that Carbon coated copper nanoparticles were core-shell structure for the copper core inside, the multi carbon layer outside, around the copper core is graphite-like carbon and far away from the copper core is amorphous carbon. While carbon-coated copper nanoparticles at room temperature and high temperatures have shown good oxidation resistance; The conductivity of carbon-coated copper nanoparticles with metal content increases and when the copper content is 80% the conductivity jump.
