The Effect of Electroless Plating Time on the Coating Performance of SiC Powders

Article Preview

Abstract:

In order to improve the interface bonding condition between Cu and SiC powders, electroless copper plating was applied to deposit a Cu coating on SiC powder. The surface morphology of the SiC powder with uncoated and coated copper were investigated. The results showed that the appropriate electroless plating time was necessary for the SiCp with uniform copper-coating. The SiCp/Cu composites were fabricated by hot-press sintering technology. The coated-copper SiCp were uniformly distributed in copper matrix. Key words: Electroless plating, Cu/SiCp composites, Metal coating
