The mechanism for the formation of fiber-like arrangement of rein- forcing nanoparticles in Ag/SnO2 electrical contact material was also discussed. The as-prepared samples were char- acterized by means of scanning electron microscope (SEM), optical microscope (OM), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), MHV2000 microhardness test, and double bridge tester. The analysis showed that the as-prepared Ag/SnO,, electrical contact material with fiber-like arrangement of reinforcing nanoparticles exhibits a high elongation of 24 %, a particularly low electrical resistivity of 2.08 μΩ. cm, and low arcing energy, and thus has considerable technical, economical and environmental benefits.展开更多
