Abstract

Thirty-two groups of data of composition and performance of silver alloy electrical contact materials prepared via casting were collected from the literature to quickly find high-performance silver alloy electrical contact materials. The key alloy factors affecting the alloy properties were identified using the feature selection method. The prediction model of alloy electrical conductivity and hardness was established using a support vector machine (SVM) algorithm, which achieved the rapid design of alloy composition. Three composition designs of Ag-19.53Cu-1.36Ni, Ag-10.20Cu-0.20Ni-0.05Ce, and Ag-11.43Cu-0.66Ni-0.05Ce (mass fraction, %) with excellent predictive performance were selected for experimental validation under industrial production conditions. The error between the performance prediction and experimental results is less than 10%, the electrical conductivity of the three alloys designed is greater than 79%IACS, and the Vickers hardness is greater than 87 HV. Both the electrical conductivity and hardness are better than those of previous silver alloy electrical contact materials prepared via casting. The above results show that the machine learning composition design method established in this study has good reliability, helps improve the efficiency of alloy composition design, and quickly finds silver alloy electrical contact materials with excellent comprehensive properties.
