Microstructure and Properties of the Dispersion-Strengthened Cu-ZrO2 Composite for Application of Spot-Welding Electrode

Article Preview

Abstract:

This paper prepared Cu-ZrO2 composite by a modified internal oxidation in order to improve the high temperature strength of resistance Spot-welding electrode. The results showed that with the increasing of the cold deformation, Hardness increased while electrical conductivity decreases. Hardness reached 100HV and electrical conductivity was up to 86%IACS after cold drawn in 56%. With the increasing of annealing temperature and annealing time, Hardness of the composite decreased more slowly compared with the conventional Cu-Cr-Zr alloy and was higher than that of the Cu-Cr-Zr alloy after annealed above 700°C for 2h and at 600°C for 5h , which was attributed to the dispersion strengthening effect of the Zirconia particles. Thus, the Cu-ZrO2 composite has good high-temperature stability and can be used for the electrode
