In order to unclose the dynamics of SPS densification, a special sintering sample (Cu/Ti wires compact) was designed. Characters of the shrinkage rates during sintering process and microstructures of products fabricated by the spark plasma sintering(SPS) and hot-press sintering were investigated. The experimental results reveal that a higher temperature field is formed at the connected area and conductive net of the compact. These high-temperature parts deformed more easily than other parts, which is believed to be the main cause of SPS fast densification, according to a hard-core and soft-hell material model.
