Properties of Dispersion Strengthened Cu-TiB2 Nanocomposites Prepared by Spark Plasma Sintering

Article Preview

Abstract:

Preparation of titanium diboride reinforced copper matrix composites with high conductivity and mechanical strength was developed based on in situ produced powders. The effect of the titanium diboride content on the mechanical properties of the bulk material produced from the powders by Spark Plasma Sintering technique was studied. Increasing titanium diboride content from 2.5 up to 7.5 wt.% resulted in a 1.5-fold increase in yield strength, tensile strength and hardness and 5-fold increase in wear resistance with only 10% decrease in conductivity.
