Cu nano-colloid was prepared by wire electric explosion process under de-mineralized water and anhydrous ethanol. To control the properties of Cu nano-colloid, experimental conditions such as diameter of Cu wire and applied voltage were changed. The optimal Cu nano-colloid was prepared when the 0.1mm diameter of Cu wire with the applied voltage of 2000 V was used. The shape of Cu particles in colloid was spherical and the XRD result revealed that the phase of Cu particles was cubic phase. About 20nm Cu nanoparticles with high crystallinity were successfully prepared using wire explosion process under anhydrous ethanol and they showed more than 100 hours dispersion stability.

Fe based ($Fe_{68.2}C_{5.9}Si_{3.5}B_{6.7}P_{9.6}Cr_{2.1}Mo_{2.0}Al_{2.0}$) amorphous powder were produced by a gas atomization process, and then ductile Cu powder fabricated by the electric explosion of wire(EEW) were mixed in the liquid (methanol) consecutively. The Fe-based amorphous - nanometallic Cu composite powders were compacted by a spark plasma sintering (SPS) processes. The nano-sized Cu powders of ${\sim}\;nm$200 produced by EEW in the methanol were mixed and well coated with the atomized Fe amorphous powders through the simple drying process on the hot plate. The relative density of the compacts obtained by the SPS showed over 98% and its hardness was also found to reach over 1100 Hv.

Zn wires have been electrically exploded in methanol or distilled water using the pulsed power technologies. The nanopowders produced by the explosions have been observed by using SEM and TEM, and analyzed its phase by using EDS and XRD. The nanopowders produced in distilled water showed ZnO phase only. On the other hands, the nanopowder produced in methanol showed mixed phases with Zn and ZnO. The HR-TEM images of the nanopowders produced in methanol showed that the some particles have been coated with carbon like materials. It is considered that the carbon coatings could be depended on the positions of the particles during the plasma state formed by explosion.
