ZrB2-Cu composite is a new electrical contact materials in the integration of high conductivity, high wear resistance and good mechanical strength. In this paper, ZrB2-Cu composites were prepared by hot-pressing sintering at 800~900 °C under a pressure of 20 MPa.The densification of ZrB2-Cu composites was improved by the addition of nickel using an electroless metal plating technique. X-ray diffraction and scan electron microscopy were used to analyze the phase and microstructure of ZrB2-Cu composites. The results showed that ZrB2-Cu composites with 60 vol % Cu which was sintered at 900 °C had a higher relative density, highest flexural strength of 381 MPa and higher hardness of 2.16 GPa(HV). ZrB2-Cu composites with 50 vol % Cu which was sintered at 900 °C had higher flexural strength of 297 MPa and the highest hardness of 2.66 GPa.

The Mo powder and Nb powder was used as raw material, the Mo-10Nb alloy target was prepared by different sintering condition (non-pressure sintering and hot pressing sintering). The density, phase composition, microstructure and elemental distribution of Mo-10Nb alloy targets were determined by X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy. The results showed that prepared by hot pressing Mo-10Nb alloy target density of 9.618 g/cm3, grain size 20 ~ 30μm, Mo and Nb element distribution.

High energy ball milling was used in order to improve dispersion of metal oxide in Ag-SnO2 electrical contact materials. The processed Ag-SnO2 (92:8) and Ag-SnO2In2O3 (87.8:9.30:2.9) powder mixtures were subsequently consolidated to bulk solid pieces by conventional powder metallurgy method. The characterization of the prepared samples included microstructural analysis by XRD and SEM, as well as measurements of physical properties such as density, hardness and electrical conductivity. The results of X-Ray analysis point to reduction of crystallite size after milling of about ten times. Microstructures of sintered Ag-SnO2 and Ag-SnO2 In2O3 materials display very fine dispersion of the oxide components in silver matrix. Somewhat higher uniformity was obtained for Ag-SnO2 In2O3 material which was illustrated by results of SEM analysis and more consistent microhardness values. The obtained values of studied physical properties were found to be in accordance with observed higher dispersion of metal oxide particles and comparable to properties of commercial electrical contact materials of this type.

ZrB2-20%volSiC ceramic composites with different volume of BN short fiber were fabricated by the hot-pressing sintering under 2000°C. The content of BN short fiber changed from 0 to 15vol%. The density, flexural strength, fracture toughness and thermal expansions coefficient were studied. The microstructures of the samples were observed by scanning electron microscopy. The results show that the introducing of BN short fiber into the ZrB2-20%volSiC lead to a serious of change to the mechanical properties of the ceramic. When the content of the BN short fiber is 10vol%, the flexural strength and fracture toughness reach 422.1MPa and 6.15 MPa•m 1/2 respectively. And the mechanism of the increasing toughness was studied.
