چکیده	Hybrid-reinforced metals are novel composite materials in which nano-phases including nanoparticles and nanotubes/nanosheets are used simultaneously to reinforce metals or alloys to enhance physical, mechanical, wear and other properties. In this research, Cu/(CNT-SiC) hybrid nanocomposite was synthesized using flake powder metallurgy and spark plasma sintering method and the effects of hybrid reinforcements on microstructural, wear and corrosion properties of the developed material were investigated and compared with those of copper. Microstructural characterization showed reduction of average grain size from 419 to 307 nm and increase of low angle grain boundaries with the introduction and homogeneous dispersion of hybrid reinforcements. Mechanical tests indicated that the addition of hybrid SiC and CNT reinforcements substantially increased microhardness and reduced wear rate and friction coefficient of the Cu. Also, polarization and EIS tests revealed the suppressing of the anodic dissolution of the matrix, hindering the oxygen reduction reaction and 62.5% improvement of corrosion rate for the composite material. The effects of hybrid nano-reinforcements are presented and discussed.
