Tungsten skeleton structure fabrication method employed in application of copper infiltration and tungsten-copper composite material fabrication method thereof

A method for fabricating tungsten-copper composite comprising the steps of:

• forming a source powder by coating a tungsten powder surface having a purity of 99.9 weight percent and 2.about.5 .mu.m in size, with nickel by less than 0.06 weight percent (600 ppm);
• forming an admixture by admixing a source powder and a polymer binder;
• carrying out a powder injection molding with regard to the admixture;
• obtaining a tungsten skeleton structure by removing the polymer binder from the resultant injection molded body;
• fabricating the obtained tungsten skeleton structure to have a porosity of 15.about.40% by sintering the tungsten powder coated with nickel structure at a temperature ranging from 1000.about.1500.degree. C. for 0.5 through 5 hours;
• and
• providing a copper plate beneath the tungsten skeleton structure and carrying out a copper infiltration at a temperature between 1150.degree. C. and 1250.degree. C. under a hydrogen atmosphere for 2 hours.
