Fabrication, Microstructure, and Properties of In Situ V<sub>2</sub>C-Reinforced Copper Composites

In this paper, in situ V<sub>2</sub>C-reinforced Cu composites were successfully fabricated by hot pressing at 750 °C under 25 MPa using Cu and V<sub>2</sub>SnC powders. Due to decomposition of V<sub>2</sub>SnC to V<sub>2</sub>C and Sn during sintering...
