The analysis of electrical erosion characteristics of contacts under DC load is conducive to the in-depth study of the arc erosion mechanism. Through the electrical contact experiment, the electrical erosion status of the Pt-Ir-Zr alloy under DC load of 25V/15A is studied in this paper. The results show that: the contacts have excellent anti-welding behavior and lower loss on arc ablation. The separation acceleration of the breaking process between the movable and static contacts is 154.32μm/ms2. The arc erosion surfaces of the material show a large number of paste-like coagulum and bubbles. There are some micro-cracks existing on the surface of the Pt-Ir-Zr alloy contacts. The obvious material transfer phenomenon occurs between the movable and static contacts under DC load.

Abstract Silver and silver(Ag)-graphene(Gr) nanocomposite coatings were prepared via direct current, pulse current and pulse reverse current on copper electrical contacts for evaluating electrical contact performance. The effects of the addition of Gr and current types on microstructure, crystallographic orientation, mechanical properties and electrical contact performance were investigataed via a scanning electron microscope, an X-Ray diffractometer, microhardness test device and an electrical contact test device, respectively. The addition of Gr changed the Ag surface morphology and decreased grain sizes. Moreover, the addition of Gr significantly improved arc erosion resistivity and decreased the average working temperature during the contact test. In addition, pulse current and pulse reverse current provided a significant improvement in microhardness and electrical contact erosion resistance owing to increased embedded graphene amounts in silver layers.
