The present work includes the effect of W addition in improving the properties of Cu with the help of high-energy mechanical alloying. Composite preforms of (5–15 W) with copper were fabricated by Powder Metallurgy (P/M) method. The preforms were sintered at 850 °C, subsequently the furnace was cooled and again the specimens were hot extruded to get 92% preform density. Four point probe tester, Scanning Electron Microscope, Energy Dispersive Spectrum and pin on-disc system were used to evaluate electrical conductivity, characterization and tribological property of Cu–W composite respectively. The various stages in dominant oxidation and delamination wear mechanism was clearly discussed. The wear rate and coefficient of friction decreased with increase in load and sliding distance. Design expert software was used to develop contour map, mathematical model and useful conclusions were made. |
