Abstract Nanopowder of TiCu was synthesized by high-energy ball milling. A dense nanostructured TiCu was consolidated using a pulsed-current activated sintering method within 1 minute from mechanically synthesized powders of TiCu and horizontally milled powders of Ti+Cu. The grain size and hardness of the TiCu sintered from horizontally milled Ti+Cu powders and high-energy ball-milled TiCu powder were 68 nm, 27 nm and 490 kg/mm², 600 kg/mm², respectively.
