Abstract

See full text

The present invention relates to a method for manufacturing the nanostructured powder by a wire explosion in liquid and a device for manufacturing the same. To be more specific, the object of the invention is to provide a method for manufacturing the nanostructured powder by a wire explosion in liquid and a device for manufacturing the same, in which, a metal wire (18) is vaporized in liquid (14) by generating an electrical explosion using the same principle al in gas, with the characteristic of pulsed power, even though the liquid (14) with a low conductivity is used, and the nanostructured powder of a metal wire (18) is produced in the space made by the volume expansion of vaporized vapour, all of which was performed with an understanding that electrical explosion is not so different in principle weather in gas or in liquid. By achieving this object, the present invention can provide an advantage of natural disperse of the nanostructured powder into a liquid, hence either the agglomeration between powder particles or the surface oxidation of the nanostructured powder is not generated, as the powder is not in contact with oxygen in liquid. Moreover, the classification according to size becomes possible with the reduction of the number of processes, hence providing an advantage of an effective application of the nanostructured powder an the economic ripple effect thereto.
