A method of producing an FeCrAl material by gas atomisation, wherein in addition to containing iron (Fe), chromium (Cr) and aluminium (Al) the material also contains minor fractions of one or more of the materials molybdenum (Mo), hafnium (Hf), zirconium (Zr), yttrium (Y), nitrogen (N), carbon (C) and oxygen (O). The invention is characterised by causing the smelt to be atomised to contain 0.05-0.50 percent by weight tantalum (Ta) and, at the sa me time, less than 0.10 percent by weight titanium (Ti). According to one highly preferred embodiment, nitrogen gas (N2) is used as a n atomising gas to which a given amount of oxygen gas (O2) is added, said amount of oxygen gas being such as to cause the atomised powder to contain 0.02-0.10 percent by weight oxygen (O) at the same time as the nitrogen content of the powder is 0.01-0. 06 percent by weight. The invention also relates to a high temperature material. |
