Abstract
Copper and its alloys are well-known for their excellent electrical and thermal conductivity but are limited by poor mechanical strength and wear resistance. In this study, CuSn19Ti10/diamond composite coatings with strong metallurgical bonding and free from defects such as cracks and porosity were successfully fabricated on pure copper substrates using laser cladding. The process parameters included a laser power of 3000 W, a scanning rate of 15 mm/s, a spot diameter of 2.5 mm, and a lapping rate of 30 %. A comprehensive analysis of the microstructure and wear resistance was performed on coatings with 0, 2.5 %, 5 %, and 10 % (wt%) diamond content using SEM, EDS, XRD, and white light interferometry. The results indicate that the coatings consist of α-(Cu), Cu2SnTi, (Cu, Sn)Ti2, TiC, and diamond phases. The addition of diamond significantly improved both the hardness and wear resistance, with the 5 wt% diamond composite demonstrating the most notable wear resistance. This optimal composition balances diamond content, ensuring effective retention within the CuSn19Ti10 matrix, thereby reducing plastic deformation and minimizing diamond pull-out during wear.
期刊介绍:
DRM is a leading international journal that publishes new fundamental and applied research on all forms of diamond, the integration of diamond with other advanced materials and development of technologies exploiting diamond. The synthesis, characterization and processing of single crystal diamond, polycrystalline films, nanodiamond powders and heterostructures with other advanced materials are encouraged topics for technical and review articles. In addition to diamond, the journal publishes manuscripts on the synthesis, characterization and application of other related materials including diamond-like carbons, carbon nanotubes, graphene, and boron and carbon nitrides. Articles are sought on the chemical functionalization of diamond and related materials as well as their use in electrochemistry, energy storage and conversion, chemical and biological sensing, imaging, thermal management, photonic and quantum applications, electron emission and electronic devices.
The International Conference on Diamond and Carbon Materials has evolved into the largest and most well attended forum in the field of diamond, providing a forum to showcase the latest results in the science and technology of diamond and other carbon materials such as carbon nanotubes, graphene, and diamond-like carbon. Run annually in association with Diamond and Related Materials the conference provides junior and established researchers the opportunity to exchange the latest results ranging from fundamental physical and chemical concepts to applied research focusing on the next generation carbon-based devices.
