In this study, the effect of multi-walled carbon nanotube doping to MgB₂ compound on microhardness properties of MgB₂ was investigated by using solid-state reaction method. The amount of multi-walled carbon nanotubes was chosen as 0, 1, 2, 3 and 4% by weight of total MgB₂. All samples were obtained by sintered at 650 ^°C temperatures. The microhardness properties of the samples obtained were examined using the Vickers method. At the same time, the samples obtained were analyzed according to Meyer’s Law, proportional sample resistance (PSR) model, Hays-Kendall (HK) approach and elastic/plastic deformation (EPD) model. Samples were found to exhibit indentation size effect (ISE) behavior. It was understood that the multi-walled carbon nanotubes doped to the samples made MgB₂ softer by reducing the intergranular bonding of the MgB₂ structure. In addition, it was found that the force applied to the samples caused both plastic and elastic deformation on the samples.

在这项研究中，多壁碳纳米管掺杂到硼化镁的效果₂化合物上的MgB的显微硬度性能₂通过使用固相反应法研究。选择多壁碳纳米管的量为总MgB _2的0、1、2、3和4重量％。所有样品均通过在650 ^°烧结获得 摄氏温度。使用维氏方法检查获得的样品的显微硬度特性。同时，根据迈耶定律，比例样品电阻（PSR）模型，海斯-肯德尔（HK）方法和弹性/塑性变形（EPD）模型对获得的样品进行分析。发现样品表现出压痕尺寸效应（ISE）行为。据理解，掺杂到样品中多壁碳纳米管制成的MgB ₂更软通过降低的MgB的晶间粘合₂结构。另外，发现施加到样品上的力导致样品上的塑性和弹性变形。
