Nanostructured Cu–Al2O3composite powders were synthesized by thermochemical process. The synthesis procedures are (1) preparation of precursor powder by spray-drying of solution made from water-soluble copper and aluminum nitrates, (2) air heat treatments to evaporate volatile components in the precursor powder and synthesis of nanostructured CuO+Al2O3, and (3) CuO reduction by hydrogen into pure Cu. The suggested procedures stimulated the formation of the γ-Al2O3, and different alumina formation behaviors appeared with various heat-treating temperatures. The mean particle size of the final Cu–Al2O3composite powders produced was 20 nm, and the electrical conductivity and hardness in the hot-extruded bulk were competitive with Cu–Al2O3composite by the conventional internal oxidation process.
