Problems solved by technology

Therefore, the performance advantages of the current copper-based contact materials cannot be fully utilized in the actual use direction
Meanwhile, although the two phases are interconnected in three-dimensional space, the path of communication in either direction is very narrow and tortuous, thus failing to achieve good electrical and thermal conductivity.
In addition, the poor spatial connectivity of the matrix phase also restricts the plasticity and toughness of copper-based contact materials to a large extent, making the contact material significantly brittle compared with the matrix phase, thus limiting its practical effect and application range

Abstract

The invention belongs to the field of metal-based composite materials, and particularly discloses a copper-based contact material with a microscopic orientation structure and a preparation method of the copper-based contact material. The material is prepared by compounding a matrix phase (copper or copper alloy) with a mass fraction of 5%-85% and a second phase (chromium, chromium alloy, tungstencarbide or silicon carbide), and the two phases are microscopically arranged alternately in the freezing direction of a preparation process. The material is prepared by the technological processes ofslurry preparation, freeze casting and vacuum freeze drying, organic matter removal and skeleton sintering and skeleton infiltration, and the content of the two phases in the material is controlled byadjusting the slurry ratio. The copper-based contact material has good plasticity and toughness and high-temperature mechanical properties, and particularly exhibits excellent electrical and thermalconductivity in the microstructure direction, and thus the use effect of a contact is expected to be significantly improved, and energy consumption is reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of metal-based composite materials, in particular to a copper-based contact material with a microscopic directional structure and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] The contact is the contact part of electrical switches, circuit breakers, relays and other electrical appliances. It is responsible for the task of connecting, disconnecting, carrying and isolating the circuit. Its quality and performance directly affect the performance and stability of the switchgear. , thus affecting the normal operation of electrical equipment and even the entire electrical system. Copper-based composite material is a kind of contact material that is widely used at present. Generally, copper or copper alloy is used as the matrix phase, and tungsten, chromium, tungsten carbide and other high-melting point metals or compounds are used as the second phase. The two phases are mixed with each other microscopically. ...
