Investigation of mechanical properties of copper and aluminum covetics using nanoindentation
Covetics are novel metal-carbon materials invented by Third Millennium Metals, LLC (TMM). Covetics involve copper, aluminum, tin, zinc, silver, gold and other metals or their alloys which are infused with a high weight percent of carbon powder (up to 10 %). The amount of carbon in covetics far …

Nanoindentation of copper covetics and the mechanical testing and microstructural imaging of additive manufactured Inconel 718
… metallic systems: novel metal carbon materials (covetics) and additive manufactured Inconel. Recent efforts have led to the discovery of a new class of material called covetics, in which metal and carbon are combined in a new way via a hybrid of metallic and covalent bonds. First, nanoindentation …
