Abstract
The results are presented of a systematic study of the influence of temperature, time, pressure, and atmosphere during pretreatment and sintering on the surface area, packing factor, structure, hardness, mechanical contact to a foil, and electrical conductivity of sinter produced from 900-Å Cu powder. Conditions for the reproducible production of sinter with high surface area (2–3 m2/g) and good conductivity (ρ300=10–15 µΩ-cm andR 300/R4.2≈3) are determined.
