される焼結体製造方法に関するものである。Detailed Description of the Invention [Industrial Application Field] The present invention relates to the production of a sintered body formed through a molding process for obtaining a green molded body from raw material powder, a degreasing process for the green molded body, and a sintering process. It is about the method.

削等の後加工を必要とする。Generally, in the process of manufacturing a metal sintered body, a compact before sintering is obtained as a green compact by compression molding powder. Since this method usually involves applying pressure with a punch from above and below, the shape of the green molded product obtained is limited to relatively simple shapes such as cylinders and cylinders.
To obtain more complex products, the sintered product requires post-processing such as cutting and grinding.
このような観点から成形体の形状を製品により近づける

属の焼結製品に製造も適用が試みられてきている。From this point of view, various techniques have been studied to make the shape of the molded object more similar to that of the product. In the field of ceramic products, mainly so-called engineering ceramics, 10 to 20% by weight of a binder mainly composed of organic polymers is added to raw material powder, mixed and kneaded, and then injection molded or extruded molded bodies are produced. A method of obtaining products by degreasing and sintering has been used industrially. Injection molding and extrusion molding are originally molding methods for thermoplastic plastics, but they are suitable for mass production of the final shape of a product without post-processing and with high dimensional accuracy, so they are used as described above. There are some noteworthy solutions to these problems. In recent years, with the development of metal powder manufacturing technology such as the atomization method, attempts have been made to apply injection molding and extrusion molding methods to manufacturing sintered metal products.
前述のような焼結製品の製造工程での最大の技術的な問
題点は原料粉末に多量のバインダーを加えであることか

容易さを考慮して、バインダーとしてはなるべく低分子
量のものが望ましい。このことから、バインダーとして
石油系のパラフィンワックス等が多用されている。The biggest technical problem in the manufacturing process of sintered products as described above is that a large amount of binder is added to the raw material powder, and how to remove this before sintering. The most common method for binder removal, ie, degreasing, is to thermally decompose and volatilize the binder by heating, and in recent years, extraction using carbon dioxide scum in a supercritical state (quasi-liquid state) has also been attempted. In either heating or extraction method, it is desirable to use a binder with as low a molecular weight as possible in consideration of ease of diffusion of pinter in the molded body. For this reason, petroleum-based paraffin wax and the like are often used as binders.
しかしバインダーは金属粉末との親和性か小さく、また
一般に有機高分子は低分子量になるに従い、機械的な強

をきたすことが避けられない。しかも前述のようにバイ
ンダーと金属粉末の親和性の小さいことから粉末の原料
中での分散性にも問題があり、成形不良となることが多
い。However, the binder has a low affinity with metal powder, and the mechanical strength of organic polymers generally decreases as the molecular weight decreases, so the molded product itself has insufficient mechanical strength and poses problems in handling. This inevitably leads to a decrease in yield. Moreover, as mentioned above, since the affinity between the binder and the metal powder is low, there is a problem in the dispersibility of the powder in the raw material, which often results in poor molding.
本発明はかかる問題点に鑑み、原料粉末表面を改質する

製造方法を提供することを目的とする。In view of these problems, the present invention improves the dispersibility of the raw material powder by modifying the surface of the raw material powder, and produces a metal sintered body that can improve the mechanical strength of the molded body at low temperature and low pressure. The purpose is to provide a method.

結体の製造方法が得られる。According to the present invention, a metal sintered body includes a molding process of mixing and kneading raw materials including metal powder and a binder, compounding, injection molding or extrusion molding to obtain a molded body, a degreasing process, and a sintering process. In the manufacturing method, the metal powder is surface-treated with a silane coupling agent containing one or more silicon atoms and one or more alkoxy groups in one molecule to form a coating of a silicon compound. A method for producing a body is obtained.

際の焼結性の向上にも寄与することを見出し、本発明を
なすに至ったものである。Generally, as a method for surface modification of inorganic powder, (1) a surfactant such as an olefinic acid derivative is uniformly adsorbed on the surface. (2) While the powder is dispersed in a suitable dispersion medium, a monomer capable of polymerization reaction and a catalyst are added and reacted to coat the powder surface with the polymer. (3) Coating the surface with a thermoplastic or thermosetting polymer. (4) The surface is coated with an organometallic compound having an alkoxy group, that is, a coupling agent. Although (1) is effective in improving the dispersibility of the powder, the mechanical strength of the green molded product tends to decrease, and surfactant powder = 6
− The bond with the rice surface is not strong. For (2), the catalyst used is of course a highly viscous chemical like peroxide, so it often does not soak the metal surface.
3) becomes more difficult to process as it becomes finer, making it less practical. Therefore, the present inventors focused on (4), and as a result of investigation, found that silicon atoms and alkoxy groups are each included in one molecule. The silane coupling agent having one or more of these can improve the dispersibility of the metal powder and the mechanical strength of the compact, and also contribute to improving the sinterability during sintering by surface treatment with the above-mentioned compound. This discovery led to the present invention.

た皮膜か形成され、バインダーと粉末の親和性を増加す

に寄与すると考えられる。In the method according to the present invention, a chemical bond is formed between the powder surface and the compound by the alkoxy group, a film is formed that is strongly bonded to the surface, and the affinity of the powder with the binder is increased, thereby improving the dispersibility of the powder. It is thought that this contributes to improving the mechanical strength of the molded article.

る。In the present invention, the surface treatment method for the metal powder may be a simple method in which the above-mentioned silane cup link additive is dissolved as it is in a suitable solvent such as ethanol, mixed with the powder, and left as it is; In order to quickly remove the solvent and promote the reaction, heating may be used, or in that case, it is preferable to conduct the reaction in an inert gas to suppress oxidation of the surface of the metal powder. In the present invention, it is possible to remove only the paint particles and leave a silicon-containing film on the surface of the metal powder in the degreasing process by heating or organic solvent extraction, and in the sintering process, it is possible to remove the silicon-containing film on the surface of the metal powder. If there is a component that forms a compound with silicon, it is understood that the reaction between that component and silicon contributes to the promotion of sintering. Furthermore, during the sintering process silicon can diffuse into the metal powder particle phase in the green compact to obtain a solid solution.

重要である。As described in detail above, according to the present invention, the mechanical strength of an injection-molded green molded body and the relative density of a sintered body can be improved at low cost. Further, according to the present invention, the injection molding conditions can be set to low temperature and low pressure. As is well known, the generation of scraps such as sprue and runners is unavoidable in injection molding, but recycling scraps can help reduce costs, especially for materials that contain expensive metal powder, as in this case. . Therefore, it is important to keep the molding temperature as low as possible in order to prevent thermal deterioration of the material. As in this case, when using a material containing metal powder, the mold wears more significantly than when using ordinary plastic, but lowering the molding pressure is important in extending the life of the mold.
このように本発明の及ぼす効果はコスト低減に寄与する
所は非常に大きく、工業上極めて重要である。As described above, the effect of the present invention greatly contributes to cost reduction, and is extremely important industrially.
