- An electrical contact material is produced by infiltrating copper into aporous tungsten carbide (WC) compact. The density of the final composite is 12.3g/cm3. Assuming that all of the pores are filled with copper, calculate (a) the volumefraction of copper in the composite, (b) the volume fraction of pores in the WCcompact prior to infiltration, and (c) the original density of the WC compact beforeinfiltration.arrow_forwardDiscuss the effect of monomodal and bimodal particle size distribution of powderson the microstructure and properties of advanced ceramics.
