Abstract

PURPOSE: To obtain an Nb-Al intermetallic compd. in a high yield by coating the surface of Nb powder of a specified particle diameter with Al in a specified thickness and heating the coated powder with a plasma jet. CONSTITUTION: The surface of Nb powder of 20-70μm average particle diameter is coated with Al in 1-10μm average thickness and the coated powder is heated with a plasma jet. In the case of <=20μm average particle diameter of the Nb powder, the feedability of the powder is low. In the case of >70μm, unreacted Nb remains in the core part and yield is reduced. The average particle diameter is preferably 30-40μm. In the case of <1μm average thickness of the Al coating layer, the remaining of unreacted Nb is not avoided and yield is reduced. In the case of >10μm, the desired high m.p. cannot be ensured for the resultant Nb-Al intermetallic compd. The average thickness is preferably regulated to 2-5μm.

Means for Solving the Problems Accordingly, the present inventors have
From the above-mentioned viewpoint, as a result of conducting research to produce the Nb-Al intermetallic compound in a high yield, a coated composite powder in which the surface of the Nb powder was coated with Al was prepared, and the coated composite powder was treated with plasma. When heating is performed by a plasma jet using a thermal spraying device, the resulting thermal sprayed layer is N of core powder.
b and Al of the coating layer are reacted with each other to form an intermetallic compound, and Nb with a high yield of 95% or more is obtained.
We obtained the research result that the production of -Al intermetallic compound becomes possible.

In the method of the present invention, the Nb powder has an average particle size of 20 to 70 μm. When the average particle size is less than 20 μm, the powder feeding property is poor and a uniform reaction is performed. Difficult, while the average particle size is 70μ
This is because unreacted Nb will remain in the core portion if it exceeds m, which causes a decrease in yield. Desirably, an average particle size of 30 to 40 μm is preferable. Further, similarly, the average layer thickness of the Al coating layer is set to 1 to 10 μm, because when the average layer thickness is less than 1 μm, unreacted Nb remains inevitably, which causes a decrease in yield, while When the thickness exceeds 10 μm, for example, NbAl having a relatively low melting point (melting point:
1550 ° C.) has a high melting point of Nb 3 Al (melting point: 1
This is due to the reason that the desired high melting point cannot be secured, and the average layer thickness is preferably 2 to 5 μm.

From the results shown in Table 1, the method of the present invention 1 to
According to No. 8, a high yield of 95% or more, that is, Nb powder constituting the coated composite powder and Al coating layer are sufficiently reacted, and unreacted Nb and Al slightly remain or almost remain. It is clear that it is possible to produce Nb-Al intermetallic compounds without. As described above, according to the method of the present invention, it is possible to produce the Nb-Al intermetallic compound in a high yield. Therefore, if the thermal sprayed layer is formed using this method, most of the thermal sprayed layer is Nb.
-Al intermetallic compound has a high melting point and excellent heat resistance. Further, the thermal sprayed layer is peeled off and crushed, and this is formed into a sintered body by an ordinary powder metallurgy method. For example, this sintered body has an extremely high content of Nb-A.
Since it is composed of an intermetallic compound, it has industrially useful effects such as having excellent properties.
