Abstract:Aluminum nitrate and copper nitrate were used to prepare Cu-Al2O3 composite powders by spray drying, roasting, reduction and ball milling. Cu-Al2O3 composites were prepared by hot pressing sintering, eventually the further densification of the materials were achieved by hot forging. The microstructure and morphology of the Cu-Al2O3 composite powders and bulk materials were studied by X-ray diffraction scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy, the tensile strength and conductivity of the composite materials were also tested. The results indicate that the Cu-Al2O3 composite powders are flake and the distribution of Al2O3 is uniform. The sintered composites have a low density of 95.4%, the tensile strength and conductivity are only 306 MPa and 89.4%IACS. After hot forging, the density increases to 99.9%, the tensile strength and conductivity increase to 422 MPa and 94.8%IACS. γ-Al2O3 particles are uniformly distributed in the copper matrix: large-sized particles (50?100 nm) exist at grain boundaries and small-sized particles (10?20 nm) precipitates within grain boundaries.
