used to strengthen the copper matrix by a powder metallurgy method. The CPD-CNT/Cu
composite exhibits excellent strength-ductility balance, the yield strength and tensile
strength of the composites reach 195 MPa and 306 MPa, which are∼ 109.5% and∼ 43.5%
higher than those of pure copper (93 MPa and 213 MPa), respectively; the elongation is
(29%) as high as that of the copper matrix (28%). More importantly, the CNT-CPD/Cu …
