Abstract
The study covers the effect of chromium on the structure, mechanical properties, and adhesion of alloys used as a binder for metal-diamond composites. Cu–Cr powder mixtures were obtained by high-energy ball milling in a planetary centrifugal mill. This process was used to obtain two-phase Cu–Cr powders with uniformly distributed submicron Cr particles. Cu–Х%Cr compact samples (where Х = 10, 30 and 50 %) were obtained by hot pressing. It was found that Cu–30%Cr compact samples showed the best mechanical properties (9 times higher as compared to pure copper). These alloys feature a hardening mechanism based on the Hall–Petch law. The resulting alloys have a homogenous ultrafine structure, which results in high ultimate bending strength (2330 MPa). Chromium addition to the copper binder considerably increases its adhesion to diamond in metal-diamond composites due to chemical interaction between chromium included into the binder and diamond carbon with Cr3C2 carbide formation.
