Abstract
Cu/graphene metal matrix composite is promising for a wide range of applications. However, the important problems in the synthesis of the Cu/graphene composite exist, associated with the poor dispersion of the graphene in the matrix and weak interfacial bonding. High pressure torsion processing supplies a possibility to obtain bulk samples with a nanocrystalline structure, without pores and contamination from dissimilar materials. This processing was successfully used for fabrication of the Cu/graphene composite out of thin copper foils coated with a monolayer of graphene. Microstructural characterization of the processed disks demonstrated microstructure with an equiaxed grain size of about 300 nm. The process significantly increased microhardness of Cu/graphene composite. The tensile tests showed the value of the tensile strength reached 670 MPa at room temperature.
期刊介绍:
Russian Metallurgy (Metally) publishes results of original experimental and theoretical research in the form of reviews and regular articles devoted to topical problems of metallurgy, physical metallurgy, and treatment of ferrous, nonferrous, rare, and other metals and alloys, intermetallic compounds, and metallic composite materials. The journal focuses on physicochemical properties of metallurgical materials (ores, slags, matters, and melts of metals and alloys); physicochemical processes (thermodynamics and kinetics of pyrometallurgical, hydrometallurgical, electrochemical, and other processes); theoretical metallurgy; metal forming; thermoplastic and thermochemical treatment; computation and experimental determination of phase diagrams and thermokinetic diagrams; mechanisms and kinetics of phase transitions in metallic materials; relations between the chemical composition, phase and structural states of materials and their physicochemical and service properties; interaction between metallic materials and external media; and effects of radiation on these materials.
