Abstract
The properties (indentation hardness, elastic modulus, and elastic recovery) of reinforcing carbon particles obtained from fullerenes by synthesis of metal-matrix composite materials have been studied by high-temperature indentation at temperatures of up to 500°C. The high hardness (>30 GPa) and superelasticity (elastic recovery >80%) of the carbon phase in air are retained at temperatures up to 400°C and abruptly decrease at 500°C. After heating in air to 500°C, the graphitization of the particles is observed not only at the sample surface, but also, to a lesser extent, inside the sample, at a depth of >100 µm. The graphitization decreases friction coefficient of the CM samples from 0.16 to 0.11 and deteriorates their wear resistance.
