Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of alloy materials, and mainly relates to a preparation process method of a dispersed copper-based vacuum switch contact composite material. It can be used in fields such as high-power electric vacuum tubes and vacuum breakers, and is widely used in defense industry and power industry. Background technique [0002] The performance of the vacuum switch is closely related to the contact material. The contact material not only affects the withstand voltage strength of the vacuum switch, but also affects the breaking capacity and life of the vacuum switch, and also affects the long-term current carrying capacity of the vacuum switch. The development of any contact material Both will lead to the improvement or improvement of the performance of the vacuum switch. [0003] The key component of the vacuum switch is the vacuum switch tube. The inside of the vacuum switch tube is a closed cavity, and the vacuum degre...

Problems solved by technology

The main disadvantages of the vacuum switch are: 1) It is difficult to adopt metal / ceramic vacuum brazing technology; 2) The requirements for the contact material are strict

However, there are still some quality problems in the production of Cu-Cr alloys, such as the high gas content in the material, the difficulty in controlling the particle size of the Cr phase in the material, and the difficulty in achieving densification, etc., which requires continuous improvement and development of new Cu-Cr alloys. -Cr alloy preparation technology and new heat treatment process to further improve the performance of Cu-Cr alloy contact material
