Problems solved by technology

[0006] The material prepared by the high-energy ball milling method (document 1) has high strength and good electrical properties, but it is easy to introduce impurities and is not easy to mass-produce
The material prepared by the chemical coating method (document 3) has good interface strength, excellent plasticity, and is convenient for processing. The disadvantage is that the process operation is complicated and the process is numerous
The pre-oxidation method (document 2) is a new method that has recently emerged. Its advantages are good material interface bonding strength and uniform dispersion, but it is only suitable for oxide particle reinforced series and cannot be applied to other electrical contact material systems

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for preparing a silver-based electric contact material, which comprises the following steps of: adopting a method for performing injection and atomization on both solid phase powder and a liquid phase metal to obtain reinforced phase composite powder coated with a metal; and adopting a preparation means of subsequent sintering, hot pressing and squeezing to densify the composite powder so as to form the silver-based electric contact material. In the electric contact material, the reinforced phase form is granular, the reinforced phase average particle size is between 0.1 and 100 mum, and the reinforced phase weight content in the electric contact material is less than or equal to 20 percent. The electric contact material prepared by the method has the advantages of good arc ablation resistance, high conductivity and excellent mechanical properties, and the arc resistance, the conductivity, and the strength of the electric contact material are improved respectively compared with those of a same-system material prepared by the conventional powder metallurgy method.
