<p>A method for producing a metal powder which comprises combusting a gaseous mixture of oxygen and hydrogen in a high pressure water and heating a metal material with the combustion gas generated, to thereby pulverize the metal; and an apparatus for producing the metal which is composed of a high pressure water tank, a nozzle for spraying a gaseous mixture of oxygen and hydrogen, a section for supplying an elemental metal material and a pressure container having an ignition device and a combustion chamber. The method allows the economical production of a metal powder, in particular a titanium metal powder, having high purity and an uniform particle shape and size.</p> |
