Abstract

The paper examines the hot pressing of copper-based powder mixtures with additions of lead, graphite, and tungsten. It is shown that the density of compacts increases by 2 to 3% in hot pressing of copper-based powders with additions of lead and graphite at 800 MPa and their bending strength and elastic modulus become almost twice as high. The tungsten content of 20 and 50% of the compact increases the bending strength. Preliminary cold pressing of samples before hot pressing has practically no effect on material properties and, hence, does not contribute to energy saving.
