Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of copper-based composite material technology, specifically relating to a three-dimensional braided W-fiber reinforced copper-based composite material and its preparation method. Background Technology

[0002] Copper-based composite materials, due to their high electrical and thermal conductivity, have wide applications in numerous fields such as electronics, aerospace, and defense. However, with continuous advancements in industry, higher demands are being placed on the strength and high-temperature performance of copper-based composite materials.

[0003] Tungsten (W) possesses high melting point, high hardness, high strength, and good wear resistance. Its chemical properties are stable, and the significant difference in melting points between tungsten and copper, coupled with their immiscibility, makes it suitable as a reinforcing phase to prepare copper-based composites with good electrical conductivity, high strength, and a low coefficient of thermal expansion. Research also indicates that fibers have high specific strength and specific modulus, playing a major load-bearing role along the fiber direction. They effectively transmit and bear external forces, consuming energy during fiber pull-out and debonding, thus prolonging crack propagation paths. As a reinforcing phase, they can effectively improve the performance of composite materials. Using W fiber-reinforced copper-based composites, the directional arrangement of W fibers allows for different fiber distributions in different directions, resulting in excellent tensile strength and hardness, while also improving the material's resistance to softening. Existing W fiber-reinforced copper-based composites are mainly prepared via melt infiltration. However, melt infiltration at temperatures above the melting point of copper can cause W fibers to recrystallize, leading to a decrease in the composite's performance. Therefore, it is necessary to find a new method to prepare W fiber reinforced copper matrix composites with high density, good interfacial bonding and avoid recrystallization, so that the composites can have high strength while maintaining good conductivity, in order to meet new performance requirements. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a three-dimensional braided W-fiber reinforced copper matrix composite material and its preparation method, so as to solve the technical problems that existing methods are difficult to achieve at the same time, including high density, good interfacial bonding and avoidance of recrystallization.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention employs the following technical solution: This invention discloses a method for preparing a three-dimensional braided W-fiber reinforced copper-based composite material, comprising the following steps: S1: A continuous set of W fibers and a continuous set of Cu alloy fibers are woven in three dimensions to obtain a fiber-woven preform; S2: After cleaning the fiber braid skeleton, it is mixed with copper alloy powder and then subjected to hot isostatic pressing sintering in an inert gas atmosphere. The sintering temperature of the hot isostatic pressing sintering treatment is 900~950℃.

[0006] Furthermore, the specific steps of the three-dimensional weaving are as follows: A three-dimensional five-dimensional structure is adopted, in which a continuous set of W fibers and a continuous set of Cu alloy fibers are mixed and woven. During the mixed weaving process, Cu alloy fibers are used as axial yarns and W fibers are used as weaving yarns. The weaving yarns interweave in three-dimensional space to create a prefabricated body with a circular cross section. The group consists of a single continuous fiber or multiple continuous fibers of the same length.

[0007] Furthermore, the diameter of the W fiber is 50~200μm; the diameter of the Cu alloy fiber is 50~200μm.

[0008] Furthermore, the alloy type of the Cu alloy fiber is Cu fiber or CuCrZr fiber.

[0009] Furthermore, the integral number of W fibers in the fiber-woven preform is 10 vol% to 45 vol.

[0010] Furthermore, the cleaning is performed twice in sequence; the volume ratio of the cleaning solution used in the first cleaning is NH3•H2O:H2O2:H2O=1:4:5; the cleaning solution used in the second cleaning is anhydrous ethanol.

[0011] Furthermore, the specific steps for mixing the fiber-woven skeleton with copper alloy powder after cleaning are as follows: The fiber-woven preform is placed into a sleeve, then filled with copper alloy powder, and then vacuumed. The volume of the sheath is 10% larger than the volume of the fiber-woven preform; Evacuate to a vacuum level ≤1×10 -3 Pa.

[0012] Furthermore, the copper alloy powder is spherical copper powder or copper-chromium-zirconium powder with a particle size of 50~100μm.

[0013] Furthermore, the process parameters for the hot isostatic pressing sintering treatment are as follows: The temperature is increased to 900-950℃ at a rate of 5-15℃ / min, while the pressure inside the furnace is increased to 120-200 MPa, and then held at the set temperature and pressure for 0.5-2 h.

[0014] The present invention also discloses a three-dimensional braided W-fiber reinforced copper matrix composite material prepared by the above preparation method.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: This invention discloses a method for preparing a three-dimensional braided W fiber reinforced copper matrix composite material. High-strength continuous W fibers, which are immiscible with copper, are used as the reinforcement. A mixed fiber preform of W and Cu fibers is obtained through a three-dimensional braiding process, ensuring the overall continuity of the reinforcement. The preform is further sintered by hot isostatic pressing to obtain the W fiber reinforced copper matrix composite material. Sintering can be performed at a temperature below the melting point of copper (900~950℃), avoiding recrystallization of the W fibers. Simultaneously, maintaining the same high pressure in all directions results in extremely high density and good interfacial bonding, which helps the composite material maintain high electrical and thermal conductivity while possessing higher strength.

[0022] This invention provides a method for preparing a three-dimensional braided W fiber reinforced copper-based composite material, which uses high-strength continuous W fibers that are completely immiscible with Cu, which can not only greatly improve the strength of Cu, but also ensure the overall conductivity.

[0023] The specific steps of this method are as follows: Step 1: Weaving: Continuous W fibers and Cu alloy fibers are woven in three dimensions to obtain a fiber braid skeleton; Step 2: Cleaning: The fiber-woven preform obtained in Step 1 is ultrasonically cleaned twice to remove impurities from the fiber surface; Step 3: Hot Isostatic Pressing: The fiber braid obtained in Step 2 is loaded into a sleeve and filled with copper alloy powder. After vacuuming, it is placed into the high-pressure cylinder of a hot isostatic press. After the furnace is closed, inert gas is introduced into the cylinder. At the same time, heating and applying uniform pressing pressure in all directions are carried out. After reaching the set temperature, the temperature and pressure are maintained for a certain period of time. Then, it is cooled to room temperature, depressurized and removed to obtain W fiber reinforced copper matrix composite material.

[0024] Preferably, the diameter of the W fiber is 50~200μm, and the diameter of the Cu alloy fiber is 50~200μm, wherein the Cu alloy fiber is Cu fiber or CuCrZr fiber with a purity ≥99.8%.

[0025] Preferably, in step 1, the fiber weaving process adopts a three-dimensional five-dimensional structure, where W fiber and Cu alloy fiber are mixed and woven. During the weaving process, Cu alloy fiber is used as the shaft yarn and W fiber is used as the weaving yarn. The weaving yarn interweaves in three-dimensional space and the shaft yarn is tightened on the surface of the mandrel to weave a preform with a circular cross section.

[0026] Preferably, in step 1, the volume fraction of W fibers in the fiber-woven preform is 10 vol% to 45 vol%.

[0027] Preferably, in step 2, the solution ratio used for the first cleaning is NH3•H2O:H2O2:H2O=1:4:5, and the second cleaning is anhydrous ethanol.

[0028] Preferably, in step 3, the size of the sheath is 10% larger than the size of the braided body, and the interior of the sheath is filled with copper alloy powder, which is spherical copper powder or copper-chromium-zirconium powder with a particle size of 50~100μm. Then, a vacuum is drawn to a vacuum degree ≤1×10 -3 Pa.

[0029] Preferably, in step 3, the sintering process parameters for hot isostatic pressing are: increasing the temperature to 900-950°C at a rate of 5-15°C / min, while simultaneously increasing the pressure inside the furnace to 120-200 MPa, and holding at the set temperature and pressure for 0.5-2 hours.

[0030] Specifically, the above preparation method includes the following steps: Step 1: Mix continuous W fibers with a diameter of 50μm~200μm with Cu alloy fibers and perform three-dimensional five-directional weaving. During the weaving process, Cu alloy fibers are used as axial yarns and W fibers are used as braiding yarns. The braiding yarns interweave in three-dimensional space and the axial yarns are tightened on the surface of the mandrel to obtain a circular cross-section fiber preform with a W fiber volume fraction of 10 vol.%~45 vol.%. Step 2: The W fiber braid obtained in Step 1 is ultrasonically cleaned in a solution with a ratio of NH3•H2O:H2O2:H2O=1:4:5, and then ultrasonically cleaned with anhydrous ethanol to remove impurities from the fiber surface. Step 2: The fiber braid obtained in Step 2 is loaded into a sleeve and filled with spherical copper alloy powder with a particle size of 50~100μm. Then, the vacuum degree is ≤1×10-3Pa and placed into the high-pressure cylinder of a hot isostatic press. After the furnace is closed, inert gas is introduced into the cylinder and the temperature is raised to 900~950℃ at a rate of 5~15℃ / min. At the same time, the pressure in the furnace is raised to 120~200MPa. The temperature and pressure are maintained for 0.5~2h, and then cooled to room temperature, depressurized and removed to obtain W fiber reinforced copper matrix composite material.

[0031] This invention selects W fibers, which are immiscible with copper, as the reinforcing phase. W fibers possess high melting point, high hardness, and low coefficient of thermal expansion, exhibiting stable chemical properties, high specific strength, and high specific modulus. Through three-dimensional weaving, a non-layered continuous fiber preform can be obtained. The hot isostatic pressing method not only achieves high density but also allows the copper matrix softened under high pressure to bond tightly with the W fibers, improving interfacial bonding strength and enabling more effective load transfer, thus fully utilizing the reinforcing effect of the fibers.

W and Cu fibers are braided in three dimensions to obtain a fiber preform, which is then cleaned to remove surface impurities. The preform is sintered using hot isostatic pressing (HIP) to obtain the W fiber reinforced copper matrix composite material. The process parameters are continuously optimized by changing the sintering temperature, sintering pressure, heating rate, holding time, and W fiber volume fraction. Based on the excellent high-temperature performance of W fibers, their continuous structure, and the high density after HIP, not only is the electrical conductivity of the composite material guaranteed, but its strength is also improved to meet the performance requirements of special applications.
