In this paper, infiltration behavior Of W/Cu Composite compacts made from coated tungsten powder has been investigated. For this purpose, tungsten particles were coated with Ni, Ni-P and Ni-Cu-P using electroless plating technique. Then the coated tungsten powders were compacted under selective pressures for control infiltrated copper in range 10-20 wt%. Infiltration process was carried out at 1300 degrees C under a reducing atmosphere. The effect of pre-coat of tungsten particles on microstructure, contiguity and density of infiltrated W/Cu compacts was evaluated by OM/SEM, EDS and Archimedes methods.It was found that electroless plating of tungsten particles leads to more homogeneity microstructure so relative density of 99.3% was achieved for infiltrated compacts. The contiguity of W-W particles in the microstructure of composite made from Ni-Cu-P coated tungsten powder was lower than to other ones. (C) 2008 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
