Abstract
A small amount of carbon was doped into a Cu-15 mass%Cr in situ composite to increase the strength of the material. It is found that in the as-cast state Cr dendrites exhibit a needle shape, which can be deformed into fibers much easier than the equiaxial one. A SIMS analysis with the aid of thermodynamic simulation analysis suggests that Cr carbide exists as a nucleation site of Cr dendrites. The composite has a tensile strength of 1200 MPa and an electrical conductivity of 38% IACS in the cold-worked state, and 960 MPa and 73% IACS after optimized aging treatment.
