Powder metal composition and method for producing components thereof

摘要

The present invention concerns a powder metal composition for producing powder metal components comprising a Co-based pre-alloyed powder, with irregularly shaped particles comprising at least 15% by weight Cr and less than 0.3% by weight C, admixed with graphite. The invention also concerns a method for producing PM components by pressing of articles to shape from the powder metal composition according to the invention and sintering them.
