Use of Ceramic Material There is a ceramic sintered product obtained by mixing raw material ceramic powder and an organic binder, molding the mixture into a predetermined shape by injection molding or direct pressure molding, removing the binder by heat treatment, and then sintering. The sintered product manufactured in this manner has a hardness as high as Hv = 2000 or more, but has a defect that it is easily chipped or cracked because it has no toughness.

ないという問題がある。In the case of using an alloy material, on the other hand, a metal material that is awarded as a super hard material has excellent toughness, but has a surface hardness (Hv = 1100) of that of a ceramic sintered product. It is considerably lower than that of 2000 or more), and it cannot be said that the abrasion resistance is sufficient. Therefore, attempts have been made to improve wear resistance by forming a film having wear resistance on the surface of metal to form a composite film. Specifically, a film of TiN, ZrN or the like is formed on the metal surface by a method such as a sputtering method or a CVD method. In this case, between the film formed on the surface of the metal and the metal, there is a boundary surface that is uniquely formed when a heterogeneous material is compounded, so that the mutual adhesion strength is small, It is practically difficult to make the thickness sufficiently thick and the thickness is limited, so that there is a problem that sufficient abrasion resistance cannot be secured.

The alumina component is deposited on the surface by sintering and heat treatment in an oxidizing gas atmosphere.

As in claim 4, a temperature range of 1300 to 1400 ° C is preferable. Of course, the heat treatment temperature at the time of sintering is not limited to this range, but if it deviates from the temperature range of 1300 to 1400 ° C., there is a disadvantage that the applicable molding pressure range is narrowed.

It is less than or equal to or more than Hv = 300, and its value is different. Even if the Fe-Cr-Al-based alloy generally satisfies the toughness, the hardness is Hv = 200 or less, and therefore it is not suitable for applications requiring hardness (for example, mechanical parts such as gears and shafts).

This molded product is a product or product shaped according to the purpose of use, and is different from a base material such as an ingot which is subjected to processing such as grinding in the next step. To give an example of an organic binder,
Organic compounds such as polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) and ethylene glycol may be mentioned.

There is also the application of a low pressure of about MPa, usually 400 to 1
It is selected from the range of about 000 MPa or about 450 to 600 MPa. However, the molding pressure is 400M
If it is less than Pa, it tends to be difficult to obtain dimensional accuracy.
Next, this compact is sintered by heat treatment in a non-oxidizing atmosphere. Heat treatment is 1250-14
It is carried out at 00 ° C (preferably 1300 to 1400 ° C). Within this heat treatment temperature range, sufficient hardness (Hv = about 300) and tensile strength of 100 kg / mm without forming a liquid phase
The above can be obtained, and a base material having sufficient strength can be obtained as a mechanical part.

きる。The reason why the heat treatment is performed in a non-oxidizing atmosphere is that if oxidation occurs, the sintering does not proceed and the toughness as an alloy cannot be secured. In the case of an inert gas atmosphere,
For example, an inert gas such as argon or helium is used. In the case of a reducing gas atmosphere, for example, hydrogen gas is used. Since the base material of the sintered body thus obtained is a sintered body of ferrite alloy powder, which is different from ceramics, it does not cause cracks or chips before precipitation of alumina, and is used for mechanical processing such as grinding and polishing. There is an advantage that machining or electric discharge machining can be easily performed. Therefore, if necessary, machining or electric discharge machining can be performed before alumina precipitation.

いないのである。In the case of the conventional ceramic material, it is difficult to obtain the dimensional accuracy due to the shrinkage of about 20% due to the sintering, but it is difficult to process it, and it is difficult to improve the dimensional accuracy in the post-processing. Even in the case of super hard materials, post-processing such as cutting and grinding is not easy, and dimensional accuracy is difficult to obtain. In either case, it is not suitable for use where precision is required.

Al合金系焼結品が出来上がる。However, in the case of the present invention, as described above, the dimensional accuracy can be improved by machining such as grinding and polishing or electric discharge machining without causing cracks or chips before the precipitation of alumina. Therefore, the present invention can be sufficiently applied to a place where dimensional accuracy is required. Next, this sintered body is heat-treated at a temperature higher than 1000 ° C., for example, in the atmosphere or an oxidizing gas atmosphere such as oxygen gas to deposit an alumina (aluminum oxide) component on the surface. By this heat treatment, for example, Fe-Cr-Ni- with a surface layer (alumina film) containing alumina as a main component is attached.
Al alloy type sintered product is completed.

ると言える。つまり、量産適性があるのである。Here, the reason why the component deposited on the surface of the alloy forming the sintered body is limited to alumina is that the aluminum element is easily oxidized when heat-treated in an oxidizing gas atmosphere and is made of alumina having high hardness. This is because ceramic can be produced. The alloy-based sintered body thus obtained has a large surface hardness because it has a surface layer containing alumina as a main component, and is excellent in toughness because the base material that fills the inside of the sintered body is an alloy. In addition, when a ceramic coating is formed on the metal surface by a sputtering method or a CVD method, since a boundary surface is formed between the coating and the metal base material, the adhesion strength between the coating and the base material is small. In contrast to the fact that sufficient abrasion resistance cannot be obtained because the film thickness of the coating layer is limited,
The surface layer containing alumina as a main component according to the present invention has high adhesion strength to the base material because the root of the alumina is stretched in the base material, and the thickness of the surface layer can be increased to 10 to 50 μm. .. Furthermore, it is possible to shape it into the desired shape through the steps of molding and sintering, and to manufacture it without the need for machining such as inefficient cutting. In this case, it is required for industrial production. It can be said that the economy and the effect of mass production are remarkable. In other words, it is suitable for mass production.

And the precipitation of alumina on the surface has the effect of increasing the surface hardness, and the alloy filling the interior of the sintered body has the effect of increasing the toughness of the sintered body.

Further, since the alloy sintered body after sintering but before alumina precipitation can be processed so as to accurately match a predetermined shape without causing chips or cracks, it is possible to improve dimensional accuracy. It is also applicable when accuracy is required.
