Study of Wear Properties in β-SiC(w+p)/Cu Composite by Hot-Press Sintering

Article Preview

Abstract:

Electroless plating technology was applied in order to improve the poor wettability between copper and SiC. β-SiC(w+p)/Cu composites were fabricated by hot-press sintering. The influences of SiC volume fraction on microstructure, relative density and wear propertity were researched in detail. It turned out that SiC particles and wiskers distributed in Cu matrix homogeneously. And with the increase of SiC volume fraction, the relative density and friction coefficient were reduced respectively, the wear-resistant improved greatly.
