Effect Of Cd And Spd On Structure, Physical, Mechanical, And Operational Properties Of Alloy Of Cu-Cr-Zr
REVIEWS ON ADVANCED MATERIALS SCIENCE(2020)
Abstract
An increase in the service life of electrical products from copper and its alloys is directly related to an increase in the wear resistance of materials. Structural refinement and alloying with cadmium are known to have a positive effect on the strength characteristics and wear resistance of copper, which makes it possible, with a Cd content of 1% by weight, to increase the wear resistance of copper several times, but cadmium is considered an environmentally unsafe element. In this regard, the paper presents the results of studies of a widely used Cu-Cr-Zr alloy system in the ultrafine-grained (UFG) state, micro-alloyed with cadmium (0.2%, weight), in order to improve physical, mechanical, and operational properties, as well as environmental safety. Severe plastic deformation, providing structure refinement to similar to 150 nm, and microalloying with cadmium of a Cu-Cr-Zr system alloy, after a complete processing cycle, provides a tensile strength of 570 +/- 10 MPa and 67% electrical conductivity. At the same time, the abrasion resistance increases by 12 and 35% relative to the industrial systems Cu-Cd and Cu-Cr-Zr, respectively. The obtained characteristics are very promising for improving the operational properties of continuous welding tips, collector plates, and contact wires operating under conditions of intense wear.
