Abstract :
Ultra-fine copper powder was prepared by ball milling solid phase reaction in ambient condition. Ctystallinity of the synthesized copper powder was investigated using an X-ray diffraction, while the morphology of the copper particles was studied via scanning electron microscopy. The energy dispersive spectroscopy peaks and the analysis of resultant particles´ components were also presented. The resultant particles were protected from oxidation by atmospheric air, by the use of benzotriazole. Face-centered cubic copper particles with about 200 nm in diameter were obtained. The resultant powder was impurity-free and shows good stability.
