Abstract
The current trend towards nanotechnology creates possibilities for its use in materials science as manufacturing material with extraordinary properties, and is one of the goals for scientists in this field. Carbon nanotubes in particular are promising due to their electrical, thermal and mechanical properties, which have been of interest for researchers around the world. This paper focuses on the manufacturing process of the Cu-CNT composite via powder metallurgy and KOBO extrusion process, its further cold drawing process, and electrical resistance test at an elevated temperature. As obtained data proved, the higher the CNT content the lower the electrical resistance.
Keywords
