Abstract

Copper-matrix composites were fabricated by powder metallurgy processing of copper-coated molybdenum particles. At 69.6 vol.% Mo, 28.9 vol.% Cu and 1.5 vol.% porosity, the composite exhibited coefficient of thermal expansion 7.4×10-6 °C-1 and thermal conductivity 146 W/(m.K). At 59.7 vol.% Mo, 39.6 vol.% Cu and 0.8 vol.% porosity, the composite exhibited coefficient of thermal expansion 8.4×10-6 °C-1 and thermal conductivity 191 W/(m.K). The coefficient of thermal expansion was higher, the thermal conductivity was lower and the porosity was higher in composites with the corresponding Mo weight fractions but fabricated by powder metallurgy processing of mixtures of copper and molybdenum particles.
