Effect of Electroless Coatings on the Mechanical Properties and Wear Behavior of Oriented Multiwall Carbon Nanotube-Reinforced Copper Matrix Composites
The effects of electroless coatings on the microstructure and composition of the interface between multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) and a Cu matrix and the mechanical properties and wear behavior of the resulting copper matrix composites were investigated.Ni and Cu coatings were electrolessly plated on MWCNTs and mixed subsequently with coppe
