Abstract
In this study, powder metallurgical Cu-Ni-Si alloys with different Ni:Si ratios are produced by cold pressing sintering (600 MPa, at 950?C for 60 min) and bulk materials are solution annealed at 950?C for 60 min, quenched in water and aged at 450?C for 60 min. A fine distribution of Ni-Si compounds embedded in a netted-free structure is formed in the matrix. Although a conductivity level of at least 22% IACS is achieved in all powder metallurgical alloys, the impurity effect is dominant and a decrease in the conductivity is detected by increasing Ni:Si ratio. However, a slight increase in electrical conductivity is achieved by the precipitation of nickel silicides in the ?-Cu matrix under aging conditions. Increasing Ni:Si ratio directly increases the hardness of the powder metallurgical matrix, and a hardness value of 73 HV0.1 is obtained for the aged alloy having the highest Ni:Si (5:1) ratio.
期刊介绍:
Science of Sintering is a unique journal in the field of science and technology of sintering.
Science of Sintering publishes papers on all aspects of theoretical and experimental studies, which can contribute to the better understanding of the behavior of powders and similar materials during consolidation processes. Emphasis is laid on those aspects of the science of materials that are concerned with the thermodynamics, kinetics and mechanism of sintering and related processes. In accordance with the significance of disperse materials for the sintering technology, papers dealing with the question of ultradisperse powders, tribochemical activation and catalysis are also published.
Science of Sintering journal is published four times a year.
Types of contribution: Original research papers, Review articles, Letters to Editor, Book reviews.
