Microstructural evolution and sliding wear studies of copper-alumina micro- and nano-composites fabricated by spark plasma sintering

Copper-alumina nanocomposites of 0.5, 1, 3, 5, 7 vol.% alumina (average size <50 nm) reinforced in copper matrix were fabricated using spark plasma sintering (SPS) technique. Another set of microcomposites containing 1, 5, 20 vol.% of alumina (average size ∼10 μm) had been fabricated to compare t...
