Abstract

PURPOSE:To increase the hardness and to make it possible to inhibit the evaporation of Au by sintering at a low temp. by adding specified amounts of TaC, TiC, WC, NbC, Ni, Cu and an Ni-P alloy to Au. CONSTITUTION:The composition of a sinterable material for an ornamental member is composed of, by weight, 8-76.5% TaC, 1-3% one or more among TiC, WC and NbC, 1-5% Ni and Co, 1-4% Cu, 0.5-5% Ni-P alloy and the balance Au. It is preferable that the Ni-P alloy contains about 8-16% P and has a low m.p. Since the sinterable material is required to assume a gold color tone, the Au content is regulated to >=20%. The material is sufficiently sintered at a low temp., so adverse influence by the evaporation of Au is not exerted and a high density product of a fine finish can be obtd.

The present inventors previously developed a material disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-open No. 194044/1984 as a sintered material to replace the above-mentioned gold alloy. Although this sintered material has high hardness and is resistant to wear and scratches, the sintering temperature during its manufacturing process is too high, so the resulting product is not necessarily desirable. That is, since the sintering temperature is too high, Au evaporates during sintering, and since the contained U has a high specific gravity among the constituent components of this sintered material, the relative density of the remaining material decreases significantly, reaching 98% at most. Moreover, since the traces of Au evaporation become pinholes, uneven color may occur or small holes may appear when the resulting product is polished.

Here, appropriate values for the amounts of each component in the material of the present invention will be discussed in consideration of the above test results. That is, since the material of the present invention is required to have a golden color tone, the Au content should be at least 20% by weight. The maximum amount of λU is 1 because it is practically useless (as a decorative member) due to the
The amount is 75% by weight, which corresponds to that of No. 8. After limiting the content of 8U in this way, if the content of TaC is less than 8% by weight, the hardness will be insufficient and there will be a problem in terms of wear resistance.

When all of N1, Co, Cu, N1-P alloy, and Au are minimized, it becomes 76.51ii%. By the way, TiC, WC, and NbC are not golden in color, so they cannot be added in large amounts, but their hardness is higher than TaC, so they should be included at least 1% by weight to increase the hardness of the sintered material. However, if the content exceeds 3% by weight, the color tone will deviate from golden yellow, so the content should be at most 3% by weight. Ni and Co should be added at a minimum of 1 to improve sinterability.
Although the weight percentage is necessary, the hardness decreases when exceeding 5 weight percent, so keep it at 5 weight percent.Also, Cu lowers the sintering temperature, improving sinterability, and the precipitation hardening of Cu increases the hardness. It is added in an amount of 1% by weight or more to increase the Cu content, but if it is too large, Cu will leach out, so the amount should be 4% by weight or less.

As described above, the material of the present invention has a golden color tone, is made of 58.3% by weight of Au corresponding to 14, has a hardness of Hv 400 to 450, and has a low Aufi.

Furthermore, while conventional gold alloys were produced by a melting method, the material of the present invention is produced by a powder metallurgy method, making it possible to obtain a material with a composition that could not be produced by conventional methods, and also to reduce its size (particularly its thickness). Since it can be adjusted freely and has excellent corrosion resistance, it is ideal as a material for various decorative parts such as watch frames, lighters, tie pins, cufflinks, necklaces, etc.
