For example, in a specific temperature range, the size of some materials shrinks as the temperature increases, which shows negative thermal expansion (NTE); there are also very few materials whose size remains almost constant as the temperature increases within a certain temperature range, that is, zero thermal expansion (ZTE) materials. The linear expansion coefficient ( α l ) is greater than 2×10 -6 K -1 The material is called positive thermal expansion material, which is -2×10 -6 K -1 ≤ α l ≤2×10 -6 K -1 The material is called zero thermal expansion material. α l <-2×10 -6 K -1 Materials with negative thermal expansion are called negative thermal expansion materials.

As the copper plating time increases from 180 min to 1440 min, the diffraction peak of copper gradually strengthens, indicating that the thickness of the copper layer increases with the increase of copper plating time.

[0027] Combined with attachment Figure 2 As shown, the Ho2Fe 17 / Cu bulk composite materials to carry out micromorphology and composition analysis, specifically Figure 2 As shown, Figure 2 (a) shows the Ho2Fe obtained in Example 1 17 Scanning electron micrograph of the Mg / Cu bulk composite material and the distribution of copper elements show that there are no obvious pores in the sample, the structure is dense, and copper is distributed in a continuous network. Figure 2 (b) shows the Ho2Fe obtained in Example 4 17 Scanning electron micrograph of the composite material and the distribution diagram of copper elements of the composite material of the present invention show that the thickness of the copper mesh is significantly increased compared with the sample obtained in Example 1, and the copper content in the composite material is increased.

The above change in thermal expansion behavior comes from the 17 The matrix phase and the Cu phase have different thermal expansion characteristics. The elemental Cu exhibits positive thermal expansion, while Ho2Fe 17 The matrix exhibits a negative thermal expansion effect, which can compensate for Ho2Fe when the Cu content is low. 17 The negative thermal expansion effect of the matrix makes Ho2Fe 17 The Ho2Fe / Cu bulk composite material exhibits zero thermal expansion effect as a whole. When the Cu content is high, the positive thermal expansion effect of Cu dominates, making the Ho2Fe 17 / Cu bulk composite material exhibits a positive thermal expansion effect as a whole.

[0029] Combined with attachment Figure 4 As shown, the conventional arc melting method for preparing Ho2Fe 17 The thermal expansion curves of the Ho2Fe bulk composite material in two perpendicular directions show that in the temperature range of 100~355 K, there is a significant difference in the thermal expansion coefficient of the material along the two mutually perpendicular directions. 17The thermal expansion coefficients of the / Fe bulk composite material along two mutually perpendicular directions are 0.19×10 −6 K −1 and 6.91×10 −6 K −1 ,according to Figure 4 From the curve characteristics of (a) and 4(b), it can be seen that in the temperature range of 120~352K, the thermal expansion coefficient of the material along two mutually perpendicular directions has obvious differences, showing significant anisotropic thermal expansion properties; Combined with attachment Figure 5 As shown, Figure 5 The Ho2Fe obtained in Example 2 is shown 17 The thermal expansion curves of the Cu / Cu bulk composite material in different directions are shown in Figure 2. The thermal expansion curves of the three directions in the coordinate system are almost identical. In the working temperature range of 120~352K, the thermal expansion coefficients of the three directions are -0.27×10 −6 K −1 、-0.36×10 −6 K −1 and -0.21×10 −6 K −1 , the thermal expansion coefficient is relatively close, showing an isotropic zero thermal expansion effect.

The specific results are as follows: Figure 6 As shown in the (compressive stress-strain curve), the results show that the Ho2Fe 17 The maximum compressive strengths of the / Cu bulk composites are 1256MPa, 1417MPa, 1704MPa and 1810MPa, respectively; Combined with attachment Figure 7 As shown, it shows that conventional arc melting is used in the prior art to prepare Figure 4 Ho2Fe 17 The mechanical properties of the Ho2Fe / Fe bulk composite material were tested and the compressive strength value was 800MPa. Compared with the above-mentioned existing preparation technology, the present invention prepared Ho2Fe with significantly improved compressive strength by chemical copper plating and short-time vacuum hot pressing. 17 Based composite materials, specifically Ho2Fe 17 / Cu bulk composite materials.

The results are as follows Figure 6 As shown in (ad), it can be seen from the figure that Ho2Fe 17 A transition layer is formed at the interface between the main phase and Cu. The transition layer is composed of alternating nano-layered α-Fe and HoCu4. The Ho2Fe 17 The micromorphology of the / Cu bulk composite material after compression fracture was analyzed. Figure 6 (e) As shown in the figure, the sample is under compressive stress. 17 Cracks were generated in the main phase, but the crack propagation was hindered by the reaction layer. It can be seen that the copper plating and vacuum hot pressing treatment can effectively reduce the Ho2Fe 17 A unique reaction layer is formed at the interface between the two phases with Cu, which hinders crack propagation and produces Ho2Fe with improved compressive strength. 17 / Cu bulk composite materials.
