Flow properties of Cu/CNTs feedstocks

In this study, the flow behavior of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (CNTs) reinforced copper matrix feedstocks is presented. The solid loadings in the copper feedstock were investigated in the ranges of 55-61 Vol.% using binder. Pure copper (Cu) and Cu/CNTs feedstocks were compounded using internal mi...
