Problems solved by technology

[0002] Conventional Cu-WC (copper-tungsten carbide) series materials are composed of WC (tungsten carbide), an oxidation-resistant material with high hardness, high melting point, low vapor pressure, and good chemical stability, and Cu (copper) with good electrical conductivity. It is an electric contact composite material with good arc resistance, low burning loss and excellent welding resistance. The mass percentage of WC in the conventional Cu-WC series materials is 40-60%. The biggest problem in the use of such materials Because the WC content is too high and the conductivity is low, an oxide film is easily formed on the surface of the contact, which increases the resistance, deteriorates the conductivity, and damages the electrical appliance due to overheating of the contact. This type of contact is only used for higher current. Switches, circuit breakers, etc., but it is not suitable for low-voltage electrical switches and circuit breakers with medium current
This kind of material is composed of elements that are incompatible with each other in the molten state, and its processability and craftsmanship are relatively poor. It can only be manufactured by powder metallurgy. These processes make the internal structure of the material unstable and affect the quality of the material. Effect
The above defects limit the applicability and satisfaction of the Cu-WC series materials in many fields, therefore, it is urgent to solve the above problems

Abstract

An alloy material of Cu-tungsten carbide-C-Ti-RE is consists of Cu, WC, C, Ti, rare-earth. The material decrease the content of the 'WC' and increase the content of 'Cu' so improve the conductance, as a result, it can control the temperature of the material. The material which added proper C and Ti, RE can improve the non-fusibility, wearability, arc resistance, life of the electricity. The process can improve the fine structure of the histology so the material can be used from the high-current switch, circuit breaker to majority medium-current switch. Especially, it can save the silver and have good market future.
