Presinter treatment for iron powder article formed with boride additive |
摘要 |
A presinter treatment is provided to reduce oxygen contamination prior to sintering a predominantly iron powder compact comprising carbon powder and a liquating diffusible boron source, such as nickel boride powder optionally in combination with iron boride powder. A preferred treatment is carried out at a temperature effective to dissociate iron oxide within the compact but not to initiate a liquid phase by said boron source and further is carried out in a vacuum to evacuate oxygen released thereby from compact pores prior to sintering. The presinter treatment enhances carbon and boron diffusion into the iron during sintering. In a preferred embodiment, the fraction of borocementite particles formed by diffused carbon and boron in the sintered iron structure is increased by the presinter treatment of this invention.
