Problems solved by technology

[0003] Although liquid metal has many excellent properties due to its special structure; but some of its own weaknesses are also very obvious. Liquid metal material has a defect similar to glass material---brittleness, which greatly reduces its plasticity, which also limits its practical application
Due to its special structure, liquid metal does not produce various deformation mechanisms to resist deformation when it is subjected to external loads, so when the stress reaches the breaking strength, it will suddenly break, resulting in accidents and serious accidents. Restricts the application and promotion of liquid metal in the field of high-performance materials
[0004] At present, the known liquid metal shaping enhancement technology can improve the plasticity of liquid metal to a certain extent; however, its shortcomings are also very obvious: first, the preparation process is complicated, and the repeatability of the sample is low; second, because the composite plastic phase The strength is lower than that of the amorphous matrix, which leads to a decrease in the strength of the material. While the plasticity is improved, the mechanical strength that the material should have is sacrificed.

Abstract

The invention discloses a graphene and liquid metal composite material and a preparation method thereof, the graphene and liquid metal composite material is prepared by the following method: 5-20 in parts by weight of graphene and 100 in parts by weight of liquid metal are put into a vacuum melting furnace with the vacuum degree reaching to 10<-3> to10<-2> for high temperature melting under the inert gas protection for full mutual mixing of the graphene and the liquid metal into a melting body; then by use of suction-casting means, the melting body is sucked into a shape-structural mold with a cooling system for fast cooling of the melting body to form the graphene plasticized liquid metal. The liquid metal plastic property can be significantly improved, and good mechanical strength can be kept.
