Abstract:
TiCu nanopowder was produced using an electrical wire explosion method and subsequently consolidated into dense nanostuctured TiCu by a high frequency induction heated sintering method. The consolidation was accomplished by the combination of an induced current and a high mechanical pressure within two minutes. This process results in very quick densification to near the theoretical density and prohibits grain growth in nano-structured materials. The grain sizes and mechanical properties of the sintered TiCu were investigated.
