Abstract:
This invention provides a composite material that can effectively utilize the properties of a metal powder base material per se or further added ceramic, and ceramic base material per se, and excellent electric conductivity and thermal conductivity and strength properties possessed by a fibrous carbon material formed of graphene. To this end, a fibrous carbon material formed of graphene such as carbon nanotubes or vapor phase grown carbon fibers is incorporated, followed by discharge plasma sintering for integration to produce a metal sinter or a mixed sinter composed of a metal and ceramic or a ceramic sinter. The incorporation of the fibrous carbon material formed of graphene can improve various properties such as thermal conductivity and electric conductivity possessed by the metal material. Although the rollability of the sinter is lower than a fibrous carbon material-free material, the sinter can be rolled. When the selection of various conditions, for example, rolling conditions such as rolling direction and rolling reduction and number of times of rolling, and annealing after rolling is taken into consideration, Young's modulus and elongation, residual stress or other ductile properties and various other properties can be regulated without causing a change in tensile strength after rolling.
Abstract:
A compound material consists in whole or in part of a copper alloy with a transitional area consisting of a mainly graphite material and a seam zone. The seam zone consists of one or more carbides from groups IVb, Vb or VIb, and one or more elements from the groups Si, B, Al, Ge, Mn or Se. The manufacturing process is a back-casting process.
