Effect of heating rate on sintered microstructure of W-Cu nanocomposite powder produced using W-CuO mixture
The sintered microstructure homogeneity of W-15wt%Cu nanocomposite powders prepared from W-CuO mixture was investigated. The increment of heating rate considerably affected the homogeneity of sintered microstructure. In case of the higher heating rate, the microstructure was more homogeneous than that of the lower heating rate by reason of Cu-exudation during heating-up process.
