Description

Powder isostatic compaction method
Technical Field
The invention relates to a method for forming a hard alloy/metal ceramic product, which is applied to manufacturing the hard alloy/metal ceramic product.
Background
Powder press molding is a method of molding powder into a desired shape by applying an external pressure, and is the most commonly used molding method, and is widely used in the production of products such as powder metallurgy and fine ceramics. However, in the process of press forming, pressure loss caused by internal and external friction between particles and a die wall causes uneven stress on each part of the pressed compact, so that the density distribution of the pressed compact is uneven, and finally, uneven size shrinkage and uneven performance of a product are caused. In order to solve this problem, pressing methods such as two-way pressing, floating pressing, and pull-down pressing have been developed, and these methods have improved density uniformity as compared with one-way pressing, but cannot fundamentally solve the problem of uneven powder pressing density because the reason for the density difference cannot be solved in principle of molding.
As shown in fig. 1, in normal temperature, rubber or plastic is generally used as a sheathing mold material, liquid is used as a pressure medium, the pressure is generally 100 to 630MPa, and the density of powder is molded or a compression molding soft blank is homogenized by omnidirectional pressurization. As a molding process, compared with the conventional molding technology, the isostatic pressing molded product has high density which is 5-l 5% higher than that of one-way and two-way compression molding, and the density of the pressed blank is uniform and consistent. In the press molding, the density distribution of the green compact becomes uneven in both of the one-way and two-way pressing. This density variation can often reach more than 10% when pressing complex shaped articles. Although the cold isostatic pressing technology is an omnidirectional pressing technology, the density uniformity of a formed blank is improved, but the method has the defects of large equipment investment (special equipment is required), low efficiency, easy pollution to a blank body and the like.
Disclosure of Invention
The invention develops a powder isostatic pressing method aiming at the problems that the density is easy to be uneven in powder press forming and the equipment investment is large, the efficiency is low and the blank body is easy to be polluted in cold isostatic pressing.
In order to achieve the purpose, the invention adopts the structural technical scheme that: a powder isostatic compaction method is characterized by comprising the following steps:
step one, filling mixed powder or compression molding soft blank into a sheath mold made of rubber, wherein the mixed powder is a hard alloy or a metal ceramic material added with 1-4wt.% of paraffin, and the compression molding soft blank is also a hard alloy or a metal ceramic material added with 1-4wt.% of paraffin; putting the packaged covering die into a vacuum box, vacuumizing and heating at 40-60 ℃, and keeping the temperature for 20-60 min; on the other side, resin with softening point less than 70 ℃ is filled into the metal mold, and the metal mold is heated until the resin in the metal mold is completely softened;
secondly, putting the sheath mould heated in the first step into a metal mould, and immersing the sheath mould into the resin;
and thirdly, driving a punch of the metal mold by adopting a press, enabling the punch to enter a mold cavity of the metal mold, applying pressure of 20-100MPa to the resin molten liquid, maintaining the pressure for 0-30S, then releasing the pressure, taking out the sheathing mold, and cutting the sheathing mold to obtain a formed green compact.
In the scheme, the outer ring of the metal mold is provided with the electric heating ring, and the electric heating ring is used for heating the metal mold. Other existing heating means may also be used in practice.
In the scheme, the metal mold consists of a female mold, an upper punch and a material bearing plate with holes, wherein the material bearing plate with holes is arranged at the lower part in the mold cavity of the metal mold; and the second step of placing the secondary packing sleeve die on the center position of the perforated material bearing plate.
In the scheme, the resin can adopt various resins with the softening point of less than 70 ℃ such as terpene resin, petroleum resin, phenolic resin and the like.
The densification mechanism of the method is basically the same as that of the cold isostatic pressing process, and the difference between the densification mechanism and the cold isostatic pressing process is that the powder particle rearrangement and plastic deformation are more fully performed by heating the mixture with the forming agent. Thus, the method of the present invention allows higher and more uniform green densities to be achieved at lower pressures. The contribution of the low temperature and low pressure densification of the present invention is mainly achieved by two approaches: firstly, the lubricating effect generated by paraffin softening at low temperature can effectively reduce the internal friction among particles, so that the rearrangement of the particles is easy to carry out, and a compact stacking structure is convenient to obtain; secondly, the paraffin lubricant can greatly reduce the friction between the powder particles and the die wall, and reduce the loss of applied external pressure. The reduction of the inner friction between the particles and the friction of the die wall in the low-temperature isostatic pressing process relatively improves the effective pressing pressure acting on the powder body, and is beneficial to the improvement of the compact density.
The method of the invention has the following advantages:
(1) the production cost is low: special equipment is not needed, and equipment investment is low.
(2) The green compact density is high: under the same pressing pressure, the density of the pressed compact pressed by the process is 0.10-0.30 g/cm higher than that of the pressed compact pressed by the traditional method 3
(3) The green compact has high strength: compared with the traditional die pressing process, the strength of the pressed blank manufactured by the process can be improved by 10-40%, and the surface smoothness is good.
(4) The pressing pressure is low: when parts with the same density are obtained, the pressing pressure of the invention is reduced by at least 40MPa, which is beneficial to prolonging the service life of equipment and preparing products with complex shapes and large areas.
(5) The compact has uniform density distribution and good sintering performance: the blank prepared by the process disclosed by the invention has the advantage of higher density uniformity than parts prepared by the traditional method. After sintering, the sintering shrinkage is small, and the strength and the toughness are higher than those of the traditional process.
