要旨 :
焼結体の再圧縮による高密度化およびその熱処理後の特性を,新組成のプリアロイ鋼粉KIP4600ESを中心に調べた。
1%Ni-0.3%Cu-0.2%Mo組成の4600ESは,従来のプリアロイ鋼粉より圧縮性に優れ,焼結組織は軟らかいフェライトが主体のために,再圧縮性も良好である。0.3%の黒鉛添加,690MPaの成形,1250℃の焼結,690MPaの再圧縮により,7.46Mg/m3の高密度となる。浸炭焼入れ材の転動疲労強度およびヤング率は密度依存性が大きい。4600ES焼結体の転動疲労強度は,再圧縮と360minの浸炭,焼入れ焼もどしにより,3.14GPaに達する。このように新しく開発した合金鋼粉4600ESは再圧縮・熱処理法に好適であり,高密度および高転動疲労強度など,最近の焼結部品の高性能化への要求に応えることができる。
Synopsis :
The densification of sintered compacts by repressing and their properties after heat treatment have been investigated for the compacts made from a new grade prealloyed steel powder KIP 4600 ES and other powders. The powder 4600 ES contains 1% Ni, 0.3% Cu and 0.2% Mo and is more compressible than conventional prealloyed steel powders. The sintered compacts made from 4600 ES remain soft even with graphite addition because of having the ferritic microstructure. Therefore, the density increases sufficiently by repressing to 7.46 Mg/m3, when the powder is mixed with 0.3% of graphite, compacted at 690 MPa, sintered at 1250℃ and repressed at 690 MPa. The contact fatigue strength as well as the Young's modulus of case-hardened compacts depends mainly on the density. A contact fatigue strength of the repressed compacts of 4600 ES attains 3.14 GPa after carburization (360 min), quenching, and tempering. The recent demand for sintered structural components with high density and high contact fafigue strength will be adequately met by the new prealloyed steel powder 4600 ES in combination with repressing and heat treatment processes.
