Abstract

The invention discloses a CuCr alloy contact material and a preparation method thereof. The method comprises the following steps: (1) depositing a Cu membrane on an autorotating substrate by virtue of physical vapor deposition; (2) starting the deposition of a Cr component, keeping the relative deposition rate of the Cr component increasing in a terraced shape, and depositing a CuCr alloy membrane a on the Cu membrane, wherein the relative deposition rate of the Cr component is the ratio of the deposition rate of the Cr component to that of a Cu component, the deposition rate of the Cr component is the mass of Cr deposited on per unit area of the substrate in unit time, and the deposition rate of the Cu component is the mass of Cu deposited on per unit area of the substrate in unit time; (3) keeping the relative deposition rate of the Cr component unchanged, continuously depositing a CuCr alloy membrane b on the CuCr alloy membrane a and annealing in situ under a vacuum condition, thus obtaining the CuCr alloy contact material. According to the invention, the CuCr alloy contact material which is high in strength, high in electric conduction and high in arc erosion resistance is prepared by utilizing a physical vapor deposition method; and simultaneously, the preparation method disclosed by the invention can be used for saving energy and reducing raw material consumption.
