| सारांश: | The goal of this research work is to investigate the feasibility of the synthesis
of two distinct in-situ carbides (NbC and TiC) simultaneously in a copper matrix via
mechanical alloying and powder metallurgy from elemental powders of Cu, Nb, Ti
and graphite. Three mixtures of starting powders with compositions corresponding to
Cu-10vol.%NbC-10vol.%TiC, Cu-15vol.%NbC-15vol.%TiC and Cu-20vol.%NbC-
20vol.%TiC were mechanical alloyed using a planetary ball mill for 5, 10, 20 and 30
hours. The as-milled powders then were cold pressed at compaction pressure in range
of 500-1000 MPa and sintered in a vacuum sintering furnace for 1 hour at different
temperatures from 700 to 1000oC |
