Problems solved by technology

However, due to the agglomeration of CNTs and the non-wetability with Cu, the CNTs / Cu composite materials prepared by traditional powder metallurgy sintering often have problems such as uneven distribution of CNTs, unsatisfactory electrical conductivity and mechanical properties.
[0003] The SPS sintering process has the characteristics of fast sintering and low energy consumption compared with the traditional powder metallurgy method. The faster sintering speed can reduce the agglomeration of CNTs during the sintering process. However, due to the limitations of SPS sintering itself, it is usually only used for powder sintering. , but in the process of preparing CNTs-reinforced copper-based composite materials by powder gold method, ball milling and mixing are required, and the ball milling process often leads to the cutting of CNTs and reducing its aspect ratio. In addition, the density difference between CNTs and copper powder is large. The size difference is large, and it is difficult to ensure the uniformity of the mixing of CNTs and copper powder by ball milling and other methods, and improper setting of ball milling parameters may lead to cold welding between copper powders and is not conducive to sintering, so even if SPS is used, it is difficult to obtain a dense composite At the same time, it is impossible to completely avoid the agglomeration of CNTs, both of which will affect the final performance of the composite material, especially the electrical conductivity of the composite material

Background technique [0002] With the rapid development of science and technology and social economy, the strength, hardness, wear resistance and thermal stability of traditional copper and its alloy materials are becoming more and more difficult to meet the performance requirements of copper materials in many fields, thus promoting the development of copper-based composite materials. Material development. As a typical one-dimensional nanomaterial, CNTs have ultra-high aspect ratio, super mechanical properties, high electrical conductivity, high thermal conductivity, and low thermal expansion coefficient, and are considered to be ideal reinforcing phases for preparing high-performance composite materials. Generally, powder metallurgy is used to add CNTs to the metal matrix to impro...
