چکیده
|
Using flake powder metallurgy (FPM) technique, combined with high pressure torsion, super high strengthductile Cu-CNT nanocomposite with high electrical conductivity is developed. The nanocomposite with 4 vol
% CNT showed high tensile strength of ~474 MPa, high electrical conductivity of ~82.5% IACS as well as
appreciable ductility of ~11%. According to microstructural studies, the excellent properties of the nanocomposite are attributed to the formation of trimodal grains, high density of twin and low angle grain boundaries, improvement in CNT and Cu interfacial bonding, and appropriate distribution and maintaining the
microstructure of the nanotubes in the production process. The results of this work provide a new pathway to
produce strong, conductive, and ductile metal matrix nanocomposites.
