Since the first discovery of carbon nanotube (CNT) in 1991, a window to new technological areas has been opened. One of the emerging applications of CNTs is the reinforcement of composite materials to overcome the performance limits of conventional materials. However, because of the difficulties in distributing CNTs homogeneously in metal or ceramic matrix by means of traditional composite processes, it has been doubted whether CNTs can really reinforce metals or ceramics. In this study, CNT reinforced Cu matrix nanocomposite is fabricated by a novel fabrication process named molecular level mixing process. This process produces CNT/Cu composite powders whereby the CNTs are homogeneously implanted within Cu powders. The CNT/Cu nanocomposite, consolidated by spark plasma sintering of CNT/Cu composite powders, shows to be 3 times higher strength and 2 times higher Young’s modulus than Cu matrix. This extra-ordinary strengthening effect of carbon nanotubes in metal is higher than that of any other reinforcement ever used for metal matrix composites.

Recently, the fabrication process of W-Cu nanocomposite powders has been researched to improve the sinterability by mechanochemical process (MCP), which consists of ball milling and hydrogen-reduction with W- and Cu-oxide mixture. However, there are many control variables in this process because the W oxides are hydrogen-reduced via several reduction stages at high temperature over 80$0^{\circ}C$ with susceptive reduction conditions. In this experiment, the W-15 wt%Cu nanocomposite powder was fabricated with the ball-milling and hydrogen-reduction process using W and CuO powder. The microstructure of the fabricated W-Cu nanocomposite powder was homogeneously composed of the fine W particles embedded in the Cu matrix. In the sintering process, the solid state sintering was certainly observed around 85$0^{\circ}C$ at the heating rate of 1$0^{\circ}C$/min. It is considered that the solid state sintering at low temperature range should occur as a result of the sintering of Cu phase between aggregates. The specimen was fully densified over 98% for theoretical density at 120$0^{\circ}C$ for 1 h with the heating rate of 1$0^{\circ}C$/min.

Ultrasonic-milling of metal oxide nanopowders for the preparation of tungsten heavy alloys was investigated. Milling time was selected as a process variable. XRD results of metal oxide nanopowders ultrasonic-milled for 50 and 100h showed that mean crystallite size reduced with increasing milling time and there was no evidence of contamination or change of composition by impurities. It was found that nanocomposite powders reduced at $800^{\circ}C$ in $H_2$ atmosphere had a composition of 93.1W-4.9Ni-2.0Fe by EDX analysis. Hardness of sintered samples of 50 and 100h was 390 and 463 Hv, respectively, which corresponds to the hardness of commercial products.

본 연구에서는 $Fe/Al_2O_3$ 및 $Fe/TiO_2$계 나노복합분말을 제조하기 위하여 실온 기계적 합금화법(MA)을 적용하였다. $Fe_3O_4-M$(M= AI, Ti)이고 여기서 순금속 Al 및 Ti은 고상반응 시 환원제로서 선택하였다. $Fe_3O_4$-순금속의 각각 25시간 및 75시간 MA 처리한 결과 $Fe/Al_2O_3$ 및 $Fe/TiO_2$ 나노복합분발이 얻어졌으며, 이것은 나노결정립의 ${\alpha}$-Fe 기지에 $Al_2O_3$ 및 $TiO_2$가 각각 미세하게 분산된 나노복합분말임을 알 수 있었다. 또한 Fe$_3$O$_4$-AI계에서 보다 짧은 반응 시간에 복합분말이 생성되는 것은 $Fe_3O_4$의 Al에 의한 환원반응 시 큰 반응열에 기인하는 것으로 사료된다. MA법으로 제조된 $Fe/TiO_2$ 복합분말의 X선 회절분석으로부터 ${\alpha}$-Fe 결정립 크기는 30 nm 임을 알 수 있었다. 또한 MA 과정 중 시료의 자기 측정으로부터 $Fe_3O_4$의 순금속 Al 및 Ti 에 의한 고상환원반응 과정을 자세히 관찰할 수 있었다.
