図示は省略したが、複合体(20)の製造方法は、アルミニウムマトリックス(22)を構成する材料からなるアルミニウム箔の片面に塗工液を塗布して炭素粒子層が形成された塗工箔を得る工程と、複数の塗工箔を炭素粒子層が同方向を向くように積層した状態の積層体を形成する工程と、当該積層体の積層方向の一端に位置しかつアルミニウム箔における炭素粒子層が外側を向いた塗工箔の炭素粒子層の上に、一方の主面表皮層(24)となるアルミニウム板(27)を積層するとともに、前記積層体の積層方向の他端に位置しかつアルミニウム箔における炭素粒子層が設けられていない側の面に他方の主面表皮層(24)となるアルミニウム板(27)を積層する工程と、前記積層体および主面表皮層(24)となるアルミニウム板(27)を、加圧加熱焼結装置などによって所定の焼結雰囲気(例:非酸化雰囲気)中にて加熱することにより焼結し、これにより複数の塗工箔を一括して焼結一体化するとともに、両アルミニウム板(27)と塗工箔とを焼結一体化する工程とを含む。   Although the illustration is omitted, in the method of manufacturing the composite (20), the coated foil in which the carbon particle layer is formed by applying the coating liquid on one side of the aluminum foil made of the material constituting the aluminum matrix (22) Forming a laminated body in a state in which the plurality of coated foils are laminated such that the carbon particle layers are directed in the same direction, and a carbon particle layer located at one end of the laminated direction of the laminated body and in the aluminum foil While laminating the aluminum plate (27) which becomes one main surface skin layer (24) on the carbon particle layer of the coated foil which turned to the outside, it is located in the other end of the lamination direction of the above-mentioned layered product Forming an aluminum plate (27) to be the other main surface skin layer (24) on the surface of the aluminum foil on which the carbon particle layer is not provided, and forming the laminate and the main surface skin layer (24) The aluminum plate (27) is specified by a pressure heating and sintering apparatus etc. Sintering is carried out by heating in a sintering atmosphere (eg, non-oxidizing atmosphere), whereby a plurality of coating foils are collectively sintered and integrated, and both the aluminum plate (27) and the coating foil And sintering.

塗工液は、炭素粒子(23)とバインダとバインダ用溶剤とを混合状態に含有するものであり、たとえば炭素粒子(23)とバインダと溶剤とを混合容器内に入れて撹拌混合器により撹拌混合することにより得られる。なお必要に応じて、塗工液には分散剤、表面調整剤などが添加される。   The coating liquid contains the carbon particles (23), the binder and the solvent for the binder in a mixed state, and for example, the carbon particles (23), the binder and the solvent are put in a mixing container and stirred by a stirring mixer. It is obtained by mixing. In addition, a dispersing agent, a surface control agent, etc. are added to a coating liquid as needed.

バインダは、炭素粒子(23)にアルミニウム箔の片面への付着力を付与して炭素粒子(23)がアルミニウム箔から脱落するのを抑制するためのものである。バインダは通常、有機樹脂等の樹脂からなる。具体的には、バインダとして、ポリエチレンオキサイド、ポリビニルアルコール、アクリル系樹脂などを使用できる。   The binder is for giving adhesion to one surface of the aluminum foil to the carbon particles (23) to suppress the carbon particles (23) from coming off the aluminum foil. The binder is usually made of a resin such as an organic resin. Specifically, polyethylene oxide, polyvinyl alcohol, an acrylic resin, etc. can be used as a binder.

撹拌混合器としては、ディスパー、プラネタリーミキサー、ビーズミルなどを使用できる。   A disper, a planetary mixer, a bead mill etc. can be used as a stirring mixer.

前記積層体および両アルミニウム板(27)の焼結方法は、真空ホットプレス法、放電プラズマ焼結法(SPS法)、熱間静水圧焼結法(HIP法)、押出法、圧延法などから選択される。なお、放電プラズマ焼結法はパルス通電焼結法とも呼ばれている。   The laminate and both aluminum plates (27) can be sintered from vacuum hot pressing, spark plasma sintering (SPS), hot isostatic sintering (HIP), extrusion, rolling, etc. It is selected. The discharge plasma sintering method is also called a pulse current sintering method.

積層体中に存在するバインダは、この工程において積層体の温度が略室温から積層体の焼結温度まで上昇するように積層体を加熱する途中で昇華または分散等により消失して積層体から除去される。   The binder present in the laminate is removed from the laminate by disappearing by sublimation or dispersion while heating the laminate so that the temperature of the laminate rises from about room temperature to the sintering temperature of the laminate in this step Be done.

積層体および両アルミニウム板(27)を焼結する工程では、積層体が上述のように加熱されることにより、アルミニウム箔の金属材料の一部が炭素粒子層内に浸透して炭素粒子層内に存在する微細な空隙(例:炭素粒子層中の炭素粒子(23)間の隙間)に充填されて、当該空隙が略消滅する。これにより、複合材(21)の密度が上昇するとともに複合材(21)の強度が向上する。   In the step of sintering the laminate and the two aluminum plates (27), by heating the laminate as described above, a part of the metal material of the aluminum foil penetrates into the carbon particle layer, and the carbon particle layer is formed. The voids are substantially eliminated by being filled in the fine voids present in (for example, the gaps between the carbon particles (23) in the carbon particle layer). As a result, the density of the composite (21) is increased and the strength of the composite (21) is improved.

また、アルミニウム箔を構成する材料の一部が炭素粒子層内に浸透することによって、炭素粒子層中の炭素粒子(23)が、得られた複合体(20)の複合材(21)のアルミニウムマトリックス(22)中において平面方向に分散した状態になり、炭素粒子層が複合材(21)の炭素粒子分散層(25)になり、アルミニウム箔が複合材(21)のアルミニウム層(26)になる。さらに、アルミニウム板(27)が主面表皮層(24)になる。   In addition, the carbon particles (23) in the carbon particle layer can be obtained as aluminum of the composite material (21) of the composite (20) by allowing a part of the material constituting the aluminum foil to penetrate into the carbon particle layer. In the matrix (22), the carbon particles are dispersed in the planar direction, the carbon particle layer becomes the carbon particle dispersed layer (25) of the composite (21), and the aluminum foil becomes the aluminum layer (26) of the composite (21). Become. Furthermore, the aluminum plate (27) becomes the main surface skin layer (24).

したがって、複合材(21)においては、炭素粒子分散層(25)とアルミニウム層(26)は、上述したように複合材(21)の厚さ方向の全体に亘って交互に積層された状態に配列する。こうして、複合体(20)が作られる。   Therefore, in the composite material (21), the carbon particle dispersed layer (25) and the aluminum layer (26) are alternately laminated over the entire thickness direction of the composite material (21) as described above. Arrange. Thus, a complex (20) is formed.
