Abstract
Tungsten fiber reinforced
Cu82Al10Fe4Ni4 composites were fabricated by penetrating casting method . Mechanical properties
and fracture characteristic s of the composites were discuss ed by t ensile test and bending test . T he microstructure and
fracture characteristic w ere investigated by Transmission electron microscopy(TEM) and Scanning electron
microscopy(SEM). Microstructure observation of Wf/Cu82Al10Fe4Ni4 composites revealed that a small amount of tungsten
diffused into the Fe Ni solid solution precipitated on the surface of tungsten fibers. The interface of the composite remained
good after tensile test and bending test. The experimental results show ed that the interface between tungsten fibers and
matrix alloy was compact, and the interface exhibited high strength under pull and bending force . The composites occurred
brittle fracture in tensile test, and tensile strength was 1300Mpa. The composites also occurred brittle fracture in bending test,
and bending strength was 1540Mpa..
