Description
本発明は、内燃機関用バルブシートに係り、とくに、耐摩耗性に優れた鉄基焼結合金製バルブシートに関する。 TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to a valve seat for an internal combustion engine, and more particularly to a valve seat made of an iron-based sintered alloy having excellent wear resistance.
バルブシートは、内燃機関のシリンダーヘッドに圧入されて、燃焼ガスのシールとバルブを冷却する役割を担っている。バルブによる叩かれ、すべりによる摩耗、燃焼ガスによる加熱、燃焼生成物による腐食等に晒されるため、従来からバルブシートには、耐熱性、耐摩耗性に優れること、相手材であるバルブを摩耗させないように相手攻撃性が低いことなどが要求されてきた。 A valve seat is press-fitted into the cylinder head of an internal combustion engine to seal combustion gases and cool the valves. Valves are hit by valves, worn by sliding, heated by combustion gas, and corroded by combustion products. It has been demanded that the opponent's aggression is low.
このような要求に対し、例えば、特許文献1には、耐摩耗性に優れた内燃機関用焼結合金製バルブシートが記載されている。特許文献1に記載された焼結合金製バルブシートは、基地相中に硬質粒子および固体潤滑剤粒子を分散させた鉄基焼結合金製バルブシートであり、基地相が、粒径:10μm以下の微細炭化物が析出し、ビッカース硬さで550HV以上の硬さを有する微細炭化物析出相であり、ビッカース硬さで650~1200HVの硬さを有する硬質粒子を面積率で20~40%分散させ、固相潤滑剤粒子を面積率で0~5%分散させた組織を有し、拡散相が面積率で0%超え5%以下形成し、固体潤滑剤粒子を面積率で0~5%分散させ、基地相と拡散相と硬質粒子と固体潤滑剤粒子とを含む基地部が、質量%で、C:0.5~2.0%、Si:0.5~2.0%、Mn:5%以下、Cr:2~15%、Mo:5~20%、Co:2~30%を含む組成を有するとしている。これにより、厳しい摩耗環境においても、バルブシートの耐摩耗性が向上するとしている。 In response to such demands, Patent Document 1, for example, describes a sintered alloy valve seat for an internal combustion engine that is excellent in wear resistance. The sintered alloy valve seat described in Patent Document 1 is an iron-based sintered alloy valve seat in which hard particles and solid lubricant particles are dispersed in the matrix phase, and the matrix phase has a particle size of 10 μm or less. of fine carbide precipitates, a fine carbide precipitation phase having a Vickers hardness of 550 HV or more, hard particles having a Vickers hardness of 650 to 1200 HV are dispersed in an area ratio of 20 to 40%, It has a structure in which solid phase lubricant particles are dispersed by an area ratio of 0 to 5%, a diffusion phase is formed by an area ratio of more than 0% to 5% or less, and solid lubricant particles are dispersed by an area ratio of 0 to 5%. , The base portion containing the base phase, the diffusion phase, the hard particles and the solid lubricant particles, in mass %, C: 0.5 to 2.0%, Si: 0.5 to 2.0%, Mn: 5% or less, Cr: 2 to 15 %, Mo: 5-20%, Co: 2-30%. As a result, the wear resistance of the valve seat is improved even in severe wear environments.
また、特許文献2には、鉄基焼結合金製バルブシートが記載されている。特許文献2に記載されたバルブシートは、バルブ着座側部とヘッド着座側部とが一体で焼結された二層構造を有するバルブシートである。バルブ着座側部は、体積率で10~25%の気孔率と6.1~7.1g/cm3の焼結後密度とを有し、基地相中に硬質粒子を分散させ、硬質粒子が、C、Cr、Mo、Co、Si、Ni、S、Feのうちから選ばれた1種または2種以上の元素からなる粒子であり、面積率で5~40%分散し、基地相と硬質粒子を含む基地部の組成が、質量%で、Ni:2.0~23.0%、Cr:0.4~15.0%、Mo:3.0~15.0%、Cu:0.2~3.0%、Co:3.0~15.0%、V:0.1~0.5%、Mn:0.1~0.5%、W:0.2~6.0%、C:0.8~2.0%、Si:0.1~1.0%、S:0.1~1.0%のうちから選ばれた1種または2種以上を合計で10.0~40.0%含有し、残部Feおよび不可避的不純物からなる組成を有する鉄基焼結合金材からなるとしている。なお、特許文献2には、上記した硬質粒子として、Cr-Mo-Co系金属間化合物粒子、Ni-Cr-Mo-Co系金属間化合物粒子、Fe-Mo合金粒子、Fe-Ni-Mo-S系合金粒子、Fe-Mo-Si系合金粒子が例示されている。Further,
特許文献1、2に記載されたバルブシートでは、基地相の高温強度や靭性の向上や、耐摩耗性の向上に寄与するとして、基地相や硬質粒子に多量のCoを含有させることが好ましいとしている。しかし、近年、Coは産出国の政治的不安定さや、リチウムイオン電池などの他の分野におけるCo使用量の増加に関連して、価格が高騰したり、入手が困難になったりする恐れが強くなっている。そのため、Coの使用を制限することが要望されている。
In the valve seats described in
このような要望に対し、例えば、特許文献3には、鉄基焼結合金製バルブシートが提案されている。特許文献3に記載された鉄基焼結合金製バルブシートは、基地相中に硬質粒子が分散し、全体の組成が、質量%で、Cr:5.0~20.0%、Si:0.4~2.0%、Ni:2.0~6.0%、Mo:5.0~25.0%、W:0.1~5.0%、V:0.5~5.0%、Nb:1.0%以下、C:0.5~1.5%、を含み、残部Fe及び不可避的不純物からなる組成を有する鉄基焼結合金製バルブシートである。特許文献3に記載された鉄基焼結合金製バルブシートでは、硬質粒子として、質量%で、Mo:40.0~70.0%、Si:0.4~2.0%、C:0.1%以下を含み、残部Feおよび不可避的不純物からなるFe-Mo-Si合金粒子を用いることが好ましいとしている。
In response to such a demand,
また、特許文献4には、硬質粒子分散型鉄基焼結合金が提案されている。特許文献4に記載された硬質粒子分散型鉄基焼結合金は、重量百分率で、Si:0.4~2%、Ni:2~12%、Mo:3~12%、Cr:0.5~5%、V:0.6~4%、Nb:0.1~3%、C:0.5~2%、および残部Feを含む基地中に、合金全体を基準として3~20%の硬質粒子が分散されて焼結され、硬質粒子はMo:60~70%、B:0.3~1%、C:0.1%以下を含み、残部Feを含む硬質粒子分散型鉄基焼結合金である。フェロモリブデン系硬質粒子にBを添加すると、Bは、フェロモリブデンの濡れ性を向上し、硬質粒子の基地からの脱落を防止し、基地と硬質粒子との密着性が向上し、焼結合金の熱的強度、機械的強度を向上できるとしている。
Further,
しかしながら、特許文献3、4に記載された技術では、分散させたCoを含有しない鉄基硬質粒子が、従来のCo基硬質粒子より割れ、欠けを生じやすく、基地相から硬質粒子が脱落し、とくに、近年の厳しいバルブシート使用環境下では、所望の耐摩耗性を確保できないという問題があることを知見した。また、常用のCoを含有しないNi基硬質粒子を分散させた場合には、硬さが低く、凝着が発生しやすいという問題があった。Coは、硬質粒子に含有される場合は基地への拡散、基地に含まれる場合は、基地の焼結の進行を促進させる等の効果に寄与し、バルブシートの強度向上に大きな役割を果たしているが、特許文献3、4に記載された技術では、Coを含有しないことにより硬質粒子から基地への合金元素の拡散や、基地の焼結を促進させる効果が乏しく、バルブシートとして十分な強度が得られないためであると考えた。
However, in the techniques described in
本発明は、かかる従来技術の問題に鑑み、Coを含有しない焼結体組成を有し、耐摩耗性に優れ、かつバルブシートとして十分な強度を有する内燃機関用鉄基焼結合金製バルブシートを提供することを目的とする。なお、ここでいう「耐摩耗性に優れた」とは、従来のCo含有焼結体組成の鉄基焼結合金製バルブシートに比べて、耐摩耗性が向上した場合をいうものとする。なお、ここでいう「バルブシートとして十分な強度」とは、圧入時等に亀裂、割れが発生しない強度をいい、JIS Z 2507の規定に準拠して求めた圧環強さを基に判断できる。 In view of the problems of the prior art, the present invention provides an iron-based sintered alloy valve seat for an internal combustion engine that has a sintered body composition that does not contain Co, has excellent wear resistance, and has sufficient strength as a valve seat. intended to provide Here, the term "excellent in wear resistance" means that the wear resistance is improved as compared with the conventional iron-based sintered alloy valve seat having a Co-containing sintered body composition. As used herein, "sufficient strength as a valve seat" refers to strength that does not cause cracks or cracks during press-fitting, etc., and can be determined based on radial crushing strength obtained in accordance with JIS Z 2507.
本発明者らは、上記した目的を達成するため、まず、Coを含有しない組成の硬質粒子およびCoを含有しない組成の基地相の耐摩耗性に対する影響について、鋭意検討した。その結果、Coを含有しない組成の硬質粒子でも硬質粒子の割れ、欠けの発生を回避して、硬さを確保し、かつ硬質粒子および基地の凝着を回避することにより、耐摩耗性の低下を防止でき、従来のCo基硬質粒子を用いたと同等かそれ以上の耐摩耗性を確保できることを新規に知見した。 In order to achieve the above object, the present inventors first thoroughly studied the effects of hard particles of Co-free composition and matrix phase of Co-free composition on wear resistance. As a result, even if the hard particles have a composition that does not contain Co, cracking and chipping of the hard particles are avoided, the hardness is secured, and adhesion of the hard particles and the matrix is avoided, resulting in a decrease in wear resistance. It was newly found that the wear resistance can be prevented and the wear resistance equivalent to or higher than that using the conventional Co-based hard particles can be secured.
そして、更なる検討の結果、硬質粒子としては、質量%で、1.5~3.5%Si-7.0~9.0%Cr-35.0~45.0%Mo-5.0~20.0%Niを含み残部Feおよび不可避的不純物からなる組成のSi-Cr-Ni-Fe系Mo基金属間化合物粒子とすることが好ましい、ことを見出した。 As a result of further investigation, the hard particles consist of 1.5 to 3.5% Si-7.0 to 9.0% Cr-35.0 to 45.0% Mo-5.0 to 20.0% Ni, with the balance being Fe and unavoidable impurities. It was found that it is preferable to use Si--Cr--Ni--Fe-based Mo-based intermetallic compound particles of the composition.

(3)圧環強さ試験
得られたバルブシート(機能部材側層のみ)について、JIS Z 2507の規定に準拠して、圧環強さを求めた。A hard particle cracking resistance test and an abrasion test were carried out on the obtained valve seat (sintered body). The test method was as follows.
(1) Hard particle cracking resistance test The cross section of the obtained valve seat (sintered body) was polished and a Vickers hardness tester (test force: 0.98 N) was used to measure hard particles (20 An indentation was given so as to fit within a 10 mm), and the presence or absence of cracking in each particle to which the indentation was given was observed with an optical microscope. Cracking was determined to occur when cracks were generated outside the indentation, and the number of cracked particles (number of cracks) was investigated. Using the number of cracks generated in valve seat No. S1 as a reference (=1.0), the ratio of the number of cracks generated in the hard particles of the valve seat to the reference (crack generation ratio) was calculated.

(3) Radial crushing strength test The radial crushing strength of the obtained valve seat (only the functional member side layer) was determined according to JIS Z 2507 regulations.
得られた結果を表4に示す。 Table 4 shows the results obtained.
Coを含有しない組成のMo基金属間化合物粒子粉である硬質粒子粉末No.MDを用いたバルブシート(No.S4)であれば、硬質粒子の割れ等の発生もなく、Co基金属間化合物粒子を硬質粒子として使用した場合(バルブシートNo.S1)と同等以上の耐摩耗性を有するバルブシートを得ることができる。すなわち、Coを含有しない組成のSi-Cr-Ni-Fe系Mo基金属間化合物粒子を硬質粒子として基地相中に分散させることにより、耐摩耗性の低下を防止できるという知見を得た。 If the valve seat (No.S4) uses the hard particle powder No.MD, which is a Mo-based intermetallic compound powder with a composition that does not contain Co, there is no cracking of the hard particles, and the Co-based intermetallic compound It is possible to obtain a valve seat having wear resistance equal to or higher than that obtained when the particles are used as hard particles (valve seat No. S1). That is, the present inventors have found that deterioration of wear resistance can be prevented by dispersing Si--Cr--Ni--Fe based Mo-based intermetallic compound particles having a composition that does not contain Co as hard particles in the matrix phase.
また、本発明者らは、更なる耐摩耗性の向上には、上記した組成の硬質粒子を分散させることに加えて、基地相において、微細炭化物析出相の割合を増加させることにより、耐摩耗性を向上させることができることを知見した。 Further, the present inventors have found that, in order to further improve wear resistance, in addition to dispersing hard particles having the composition described above, the proportion of fine carbide precipitates in the matrix phase is increased to improve wear resistance. It was found that the performance can be improved.

本発明によれば、厳しい摩耗環境下においても、硬質粒子の割れ、欠けの発生が少なく、また、凝着の発生もなく、優れた耐摩耗性を有するバルブシートを得ることができ、産業上格段の効果を奏する。 According to the present invention, it is possible to obtain a valve seat having excellent wear resistance with little cracking and chipping of hard particles and no adhesion even in a severe wear environment. It has a remarkable effect.
本発明のバルブシートは、鉄基焼結合金製で、バルブが着座する機能部材側層とシリンダーヘッドに着座し機能部材側層を支える支持部材側層とが一体で焼結された二層構造を有するか、あるいは機能部材側層のみの単層構造を有する。 The valve seat of the present invention is made of an iron-based sintered alloy, and has a two-layer structure in which the functional member side layer on which the valve is seated and the support member side layer that is seated on the cylinder head and supports the functional member side layer are integrally sintered. or has a single layer structure with only the functional member side layer.
本発明バルブシートの機能部材側層を構成する鉄基焼結合金材は、基地相中に硬質粒子、あるいは更に固体潤滑剤粒子を分散させた組織を有し、耐摩耗性に優れた特性を有する。なお、ここでいう「耐摩耗性に優れた」とは、従来のCo含有焼結体組成の鉄基焼結合金材に比べて、同等またはそれ以上に、耐摩耗性が向上した場合をいうものとする。 The iron-based sintered alloy material constituting the functional member side layer of the valve seat of the present invention has a structure in which hard particles or solid lubricant particles are dispersed in the matrix phase, and has excellent wear resistance properties. have. Here, "excellent wear resistance" means that the wear resistance is improved to the same level or more than that of the iron-based sintered alloy material with the conventional Co-containing sintered body composition. shall be
本発明バルブシートの機能部材側層で、基地相中に分散させる硬質粒子は、ビッカース硬さで700~1300HVの硬さを有するSi-Cr-Ni-Fe系Mo基金属間化合物粒子とする。 The hard particles dispersed in the base phase in the functional member side layer of the valve seat of the present invention are Si--Cr--Ni--Fe system Mo-based intermetallic compound particles having a Vickers hardness of 700 to 1300 HV.
硬質粒子の硬さが、700HV未満では、硬質粒子自体に凝着が発生し、耐摩耗性の向上効果が少なく、また1300HVを超えて高くなると、硬質粒子の靭性低下および被削性の低下を招く。このようなことから、基地相中に分散させる硬質粒子の硬さをビッカース硬さで700~1300HVの範囲に限定した。 If the hardness of the hard particles is less than 700HV, adhesion occurs in the hard particles themselves, and the effect of improving wear resistance is small. Invite. For this reason, the hardness of the hard particles dispersed in the matrix phase is limited to the range of 700 to 1300 HV in terms of Vickers hardness.
なお、本発明で基地相中に分散させる硬質粒子は、上記硬さを有し、平均粒径:10~150μmの粒子とすることが好ましい。平均粒径が10μm未満では、焼結時に拡散しやすく、一方、150μmを超えて大きくなると、基地との結合力が低下し、耐摩耗性が低下する。このため、基地相中に分散させる硬質粒子の平均粒径は10~150μmの範囲に限定することが好ましい。なお、ここでいう「平均粒径」は、レーザ散乱法で測定した累積分布が50%となる粒径D50を意味する。 The hard particles dispersed in the matrix phase in the present invention preferably have the hardness described above and an average particle size of 10 to 150 μm. If the average particle size is less than 10 µm, it tends to diffuse during sintering. Therefore, it is preferable to limit the average particle diameter of the hard particles dispersed in the matrix phase to the range of 10 to 150 μm. The term "average particle size" as used herein means the particle size D50 at which the cumulative distribution measured by the laser scattering method is 50%.
また、本発明では、上記した硬さの硬質粒子を基地相中に面積率で10~40%分散させる。硬質粒子の分散量が10%未満では、所望の耐摩耗性を確保できない。一方、40%を超えると、基地相との結合力が低下し、耐摩耗性が低下する。このため、基地相中に分散させる硬質粒子の分散量は基地相全体に対する面積率で10~40%の範囲に限定した。 Further, in the present invention, hard particles having the hardness described above are dispersed in the base phase at an area ratio of 10 to 40%. If the amount of dispersed hard particles is less than 10%, the desired wear resistance cannot be ensured. On the other hand, when it exceeds 40%, the bonding strength with the matrix phase is lowered, and the wear resistance is lowered. For this reason, the amount of hard particles dispersed in the matrix phase is limited to a range of 10 to 40% in area ratio with respect to the entire matrix phase.
そして、本発明で、基地相中に分散させるSi-Cr-Ni-Fe系Mo基金属間化合物粒子は、質量%で、Si:1.5~3.5%、Cr:7.0~9.0%、Mo:35.0~45.0%、Ni:5.0~20.0%を含み、残部Feおよび不可避的不純物からなる組成(硬質粒子組成)を有するMo基金属間化合物粒子とする。 In the present invention, the Si—Cr—Ni—Fe-based Mo-based intermetallic compound particles dispersed in the matrix phase are, in mass %, Si: 1.5 to 3.5%, Cr: 7.0 to 9.0%, Mo: 35.0 to Mo-based intermetallic compound particles having a composition (hard particle composition) containing 45.0% Ni, 5.0 to 20.0% Ni, and the balance Fe and unavoidable impurities.
上記した硬質粒子組成の硬質粒子とすることにより、焼結後、金属間化合物が析出した組織の硬質粒子を含むバルブシートを得ることができる。また、ビッカース硬さで700HV以上の硬さを有し、割れ、欠け等の発生が抑制され、硬質粒子割れ耐性が高い金属間化合物を析出させた硬質粒子とするためには、Mo含有量を35.0~45.0%と高く維持することが重要である。また、さらに靭性を有し、所望の硬さを維持する硬質粒子とするためには、Ni含有量を5.0~20.0%の範囲とすることが重要となる。 By using hard particles having the hard particle composition described above, it is possible to obtain a valve seat containing hard particles having a structure in which an intermetallic compound is precipitated after sintering. In addition, in order to obtain hard particles that have a Vickers hardness of 700 HV or more, suppress the occurrence of cracks and chips, and have high hard particle crack resistance by precipitating intermetallic compounds, the Mo content must be It is important to keep it as high as 35.0-45.0%. Further, in order to obtain hard particles that have toughness and maintain desired hardness, it is important to set the Ni content within the range of 5.0 to 20.0%.
また、本発明バルブシートの機能部材側層では、さらに基地相中に固体潤滑剤粒子を分散させてもよい。基地相中に固体潤滑剤粒子を分散させることにより、被削性、潤滑性が向上する。しかし、面積率で5%を超えて分散させると、機械的特性の低下が著しくなる。このため、固体潤滑剤粒子は面積率で0~5%の範囲に限定した。なお、固体潤滑剤粒子は、硫化マンガンMnS、二硫化モリブデンMoS2のうちから選ばれた1種または2種とすることが好ましい。Further, in the functional member side layer of the valve seat of the present invention, solid lubricant particles may be further dispersed in the base phase. Machinability and lubricity are improved by dispersing solid lubricant particles in the matrix phase. However, if the area ratio exceeds 5%, the mechanical properties are significantly lowered. For this reason, the area ratio of the solid lubricant particles is limited to the range of 0 to 5%. The solid lubricant particles are preferably one or two selected from manganese sulfide MnS and molybdenum disulfide MoS 2 .

The fine carbide precipitation phase is a hard phase in which fine carbides having a grain size of 10 μm or less are precipitated and have a Vickers hardness of 400 to 600 HV. The presence of such a hard fine carbide precipitate phase can strengthen the matrix and further improve the wear resistance. In addition, in the functional member side layer of the valve seat of the present invention, the matrix phase excluding the hard particles and the solid lubricant particles may be composed of 0 to 30% of the high alloy phase and the balance of pearlite. Even if the matrix phase has such a structure, if the sintered body has a composition that does not contain Co, the abrasion resistance is improved compared to the sintered body that has a composition that contains Co at the same hardness level.
なお、高合金相は、焼結時に硬質粒子から合金元素が拡散し合金量が高くなった領域であり、硬質粒子の脱落を防止する作用を有する。機能部材側層では、硬質粒子、固体潤滑剤粒子を除く基地相面積を100%としたときの面積率で、30%まで高合金相を許容できる。 The high-alloy phase is a region in which the alloying elements diffuse from the hard particles during sintering and the amount of the alloy increases, and has the effect of preventing the hard particles from falling off. In the functional member side layer, a high alloy phase can be allowed up to 30% in area ratio when the base phase area excluding hard particles and solid lubricant particles is 100%.

なお、支持部材側層の基地部組成の限定理由は、以下のとおりである。In the support member side layer of the valve seat of the present invention, the base portion containing the base phase, the solid lubricant particles and the hardness improving particles contains, by mass %, C: 0.3 to 1.3%, and Ni: 0 to 2.0. %, Mo: 0 to 2.0%, Cu: 0 to 5.0%, Cr: 0 to 5.0%, Mn: 0 to 5.0%, S: 0 to 2.0%, and the balance is Fe and unavoidable impurities. have.
The reasons for limiting the composition of the base portion of the supporting member side layer are as follows.
C:0.3~1.3%
Cは、支持部材側層の基地相を所定の硬さ、組織に調整するため、あるいは炭化物を形成するために必要な元素であり、0.3%以上含有させる。一方、1.3%を超えて含有すると、融点が低下し、焼結処理が液相焼結となる。液相焼結となると、析出炭化物量が多くなりすぎ、伸び特性、寸法精度が低下する。このため、Cは0.3~1.3%の範囲に限定した。なお、好ましくは0.30~1.30%、より好ましくは0.80~1.20%である。C: 0.3-1.3%
C is an element necessary for adjusting the base phase of the support member side layer to a predetermined hardness and structure, or for forming carbide, and is contained in an amount of 0.3% or more. On the other hand, when the content exceeds 1.3%, the melting point is lowered and the sintering process becomes liquid phase sintering. When liquid phase sintering is used, the amount of precipitated carbide becomes too large, and the elongation characteristics and dimensional accuracy deteriorate. Therefore, C is limited to the range of 0.3-1.3%. In addition, it is preferably 0.30 to 1.30%, more preferably 0.80 to 1.20%.
Ni:0~2.0%、Mo:0~2.0%、Cu:0~5.0%、Cr:0~5.0%
Ni、Mo、Cu、Crは、いずれも基地相の硬さを増加させる元素であり、必要に応じて含有できる。このような効果を得るためには、Ni:0.1%以上、Mo:0.1%以上、Cu:0.1%以上、Cr:0.1%以上含有することが望ましい。一方、Ni:2.0%、Mo:2.0%、Cu:5.0%、Cr:5.0%をそれぞれ超えて含有すると、基地相の成形性が低下する。このため、Ni:0~2.0%、Mo:0~2.0%、Cu:0~5.0%、Cr:0~5.0%の範囲に限定することが好ましい。より好ましくはNi:2.00%以下、Mo:2.00%以下、Cu:5.00%以下、Cr:5.00%以下である。Ni: 0-2.0%, Mo: 0-2.0%, Cu: 0-5.0%, Cr: 0-5.0%
Ni, Mo, Cu, and Cr are all elements that increase the hardness of the matrix phase, and can be contained as necessary. In order to obtain such effects, it is desirable to contain Ni: 0.1% or more, Mo: 0.1% or more, Cu: 0.1% or more, and Cr: 0.1% or more. On the other hand, when Ni: 2.0%, Mo: 2.0%, Cu: 5.0%, and Cr: 5.0% are contained, respectively, the formability of the matrix phase deteriorates. Therefore, it is preferable to limit the range to Ni: 0 to 2.0%, Mo: 0 to 2.0%, Cu: 0 to 5.0%, and Cr: 0 to 5.0%. More preferably, Ni: 2.00% or less, Mo: 2.00% or less, Cu: 5.00% or less, and Cr: 5.00% or less.
Mn:0~5.0%、S:0~2.0%
Mn、Sは、いずれも固体潤滑剤粒子の含有に起因して基地部に含まれ、被削性向上に寄与する元素であり、必要に応じて含有できる。なお、Mnは基地相の硬さ増加にも寄与する。Sが2.0%、Mnが5.0%を超えて超えると、延性の低下が著しくなる。このため、S:0~2.0%、Mn:0~5.0%に限定することが好ましい。より好ましくはS:2.00%以下、Mn:5.00%以下である。Mn: 0-5.0%, S: 0-2.0%
Both Mn and S are elements that are contained in the matrix due to the inclusion of solid lubricant particles and contribute to the improvement of machinability, and can be included as necessary. Mn also contributes to increasing the hardness of the matrix phase. When S exceeds 2.0% and Mn exceeds 5.0%, the ductility decreases significantly. Therefore, it is preferable to limit S to 0 to 2.0% and Mn to 0 to 5.0%. More preferably, S: 2.00% or less and Mn: 5.00% or less.
支持部材側層では、上記した成分以外の残部は、Feおよび不可避的不純物からなる。なお、不可避的不純物としては、P:0.1%以下が許容できる。 In the supporting member-side layer, the balance other than the above components consists of Fe and unavoidable impurities. Incidentally, P: 0.1% or less is permissible as an unavoidable impurity.

The test method was as follows.
(1) Observation of structure The cross section perpendicular to the axial direction of the obtained valve seat is polished, corroded (corrosive liquid: nital liquid, marble liquid) to expose the structure, and an optical microscope (magnification: 200 times) The organization of the basal phase was identified. In addition, using a scanning electron microscope (magnification: 2000 times), the grain size of carbides precipitated in the matrix phase was measured, and it was confirmed that the maximum grain size (long side length) of carbides was 10 μm or less. It was confirmed that the phase in which carbide precipitated was a fine carbide precipitate phase. When the grain size (long side length) of carbide exceeds 10 μm at maximum, it is defined as a carbide precipitate phase.
(2) Hardness test The cross section of the obtained valve seat is polished, corroded (corrosive liquid: nital liquid, marble liquid) to expose the structure, and a Vickers hardness tester (test force: 0.98 N) is used. The hardness of the matrix phase was measured. In addition, when the base phase was two phases, each measurement was performed separately.
(3) Density test The density of the obtained valve seat was measured using the Archimedes method.
(4) Hard particle cracking resistance test The cross section of the obtained valve seat was polished, and indentations were made on the hard particles (20 each) dispersed in the matrix phase using a Vickers hardness tester (test force: 0.98 N). The presence or absence of cracks in each particle to which the impression was given and the indentation was given was observed, and the number of cracks was investigated. In addition, when the crack was observed at a magnification of 500 times and the crack progressed to the outside of the given indentation, it was determined that the crack had occurred. Then, using the number of cracks generated in valve seat No. 1A, which is a conventional example, as a reference (=1.0), the crack generation number ratio (crack generation ratio) of the hard particles of the valve seat with respect to the reference was calculated. From the obtained results, the case where the crack generation ratio was less than 1.0 was evaluated as ◯ (with crack resistance), and the case with 1.0 or more was evaluated as × (no crack resistance).
(5) Abrasion test The obtained valve seat was subjected to an abrasion test using the rig tester shown in Fig. 1 under the test conditions shown below.
Test temperature: 200°C (seat face),
Exam time: 8hr,
Cam speed: 3000rpm,
Valve speed: 10rpm,
Impact load (spring load): 780N,
Valve material: NCF751 equivalent material,
Lift amount: 6mm
After the test, the wear amount of the test piece (valve seat) was measured. Based on the obtained wear amount, the wear ratio of the valve seat was calculated based on the conventional valve seat No. 1A (=1.00).
(6) Radial crushing strength The radial crushing strength (kg/mm 2 ) of the obtained valve seat (only the functional member side layer) was determined in accordance with JIS Z 2507. It has been confirmed that if the radial crushing strength is 40 kg/mm 2 or more, the valve seat has sufficient strength without cracking or chipping when the valve seat is press-fitted.
なお、硬質粒子割れ耐性試験、摩耗試験で、基準としたバルブシートNo.1A(従来例)は、機能部材側層が、基地相中に硬質粒子、固体潤滑剤粒子を分散させた組織と、Co含有組成とを有する鉄基焼結合金材であり、一般的なガソリンエンジンから高性能ガソリンエンジンまで幅広い範囲の排気側向けバルブシートに使用される材料である。バルブシートは排気側と吸気側で耐摩耗性に影響を及ぼす項目(例えば、熱負荷・動弁機構の設計値など)の影響度合いが異なり、一般的には排気側の方が使用環境として厳しく、バルブシートの耐摩耗性としても吸気側以上の性能が要求される。 In the hard particle cracking resistance test and wear test, the reference valve seat No. 1A (conventional example) has a structure in which the functional member side layer has hard particles and solid lubricant particles dispersed in the matrix phase, It is an iron-based sintered alloy material with a Co-containing composition, and is used for valve seats on the exhaust side of a wide range of gasoline engines from general gasoline engines to high-performance gasoline engines. Items that affect wear resistance on the exhaust side and the intake side of the valve seat (for example, heat load, design values of the valve mechanism, etc.) have different degrees of influence, and generally the exhaust side is more severe as a usage environment. Also, the wear resistance of the valve seat is required to be higher than that of the intake side.
