Abstract: The composite elect roforming technology was employed to fabricate nano-sized alumina particles (nano-Al₂O₃ ) reinforced copper composite in copper sulfate sulfuric acid plating solution. The surface , f racture and wearsurface morphologies were observed by scanning elect ron microscopy (SEM) , and the microst ructure was observedby t ransmission elect ron microscopy ( TEM) . Microhardness , tensile property , wear resistance and elect rical resistivity ( Er ) were examined. The result s show that Al₂O₃ particles and their agglomerations with nano size disperse inthe copper mat rix and have good bonding with copper mat rix. The microhardness of composite can be 42 % higherthan that of elect roformed pure copper. The tensile st rength and the extensibility reach 385 MPa and 26 % , respectively , as the nano-Al₂O₃ mass f raction is 1. 26 %. Wear resistance of composite is enhanced obviously. Comparedwith elect roformed pure copper , the increase amplitude in elect rical resistivity of the composite is below 6 %.
