Abstract

Aluminum matrix composites reinforced with 0-10 wt.% copper-coated multiwalled carbon nanotubes (Cu/MWNTs) were produced by liquid state processing. The composites with < 10 wt.% Cu/MWNTs additions had higher thermal conductivity than the pure aluminum produced by the same liquid state processing. The Cu/MWNTs/Al composites exhibited the maximum thermal conductivity of 442.32 W/m/K at 8 wt.% Cu/MWNTs. The enhancement of thermal conductivity is supported by the measured microhardness. The Cu/MWNTs/Al composites exhibited the maximum microhardness 91,3 HV also at 10 wt.% Cu/MWNTs. The contribution of carbon nanotubes to thermal conductivity of the composites was demonstrated by theoretical analysis. The results show that copper-coated multiwalled carbon nanotubes (Cu/MWNTs) reinforced aluminum matrix composite is a potential material for high thermal conductivity applications.
