High temperature compression behavior of tungsten-copper (W-Cu) alloys

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingConference contributionpeer-review

Abstract

Hot deformation behavior of tungsten-copper (W-Cu) alloys at elevated temperature was investigated by hot-compression testing using a Gleeble 3500 thermo-mechanical simulator. W-10%Cu alloys were fabricated by copper infiltration on tungsten skeleton (CIT) method. The hot deformation equations based on the Arrhenius equation for W-10%Cu alloy were determined through strain-stress relations at elevated temperature, where the strain rate is related to deformation temperature and activation energy. The effects of temperature and strain rate on the mechanical properties of W-Cu alloys at elevated temperature were investigated. Also, the microstructures were observed.
