Abstract
The invention concerns a method of preparing an iron-based powder comprising the steps of mixing and heating an iron-based powder, at least one oligomer amide type lubricant, at least one fatty acid and optionally one or more additives to a temperature above the melting point of the lubricant and subsequently cooling the obtained mixture. The invention also comprises the mixture of the iron-based powder, the oligomer amide type lubricant and the fatty acid.
Description
- The present invention relates to metal powder compositions and a method of preparing such compositions. Particularly the invention relates to iron-based compositions having consistent apparent density and flowability at different temperatures.
- The powder metallurgy art generally uses different standard temperature regimes for the compaction of a metal powder to form a metal component. These include chill-pressing (pressing below ambient temperatures), cold-pressing (pressing at ambient temperatures), hot-pressing (pressing at temperatures above those at which the metal powder is capable of retaining work-hardening), and warm-pressing (pressing at temperatures between cold-pressing and hot-pressing).
- Distinct advantages arise by pressing at temperatures above ambient temperature. The tensile strength and work hardening rate of most metals is reduced with increasing temperatures, and improved density and strength can be attained at lower compaction pressures. The extremely elevated temperatures of hot-pressing, however, introduce processing problems and accelerate wear of the dies. Therefore, current efforts are being directed towards the development of metal compositions suitable for warm-pressing processes.
- The U.S. Pat. No. 4,955,789 (Musella) describes warm compaction in general. According to this patent, lubricants generally used for cold compaction, e.g. zinc stearate, can be used for warm compaction as well. In practice, however, it has proved impossible to use zinc stearate or ethylene bisstearamide (commercially available as ACRAWAX®.), which at present are the lubricants most frequently used for cold compaction, for warm compaction. The problems, which arise, are due to difficulties in filling the die in a satisfactory manner.
- The U.S. Pat. No. 5,744,433 (Storstrom et al) and U.S. Pat. No. 5,154,881 (Rutz) disclose metal powder compositions including amide lubricants which are especially developed for warm compaction. The U.S. Pat. No. 5,744,433 discloses a lubricant for metallurgical powder compositions contains an oligomer of amide type, which has a weight-average molecular weight Mw of 30,000 at the most. In the U.S. Pat. No. 5,154,881 the amide lubricant consists of the reaction product of a monocarboxylic acid, a dicarboxylic acid and a diamine. Especially preferred as a lubricant is ADVAWAX.®. 450, which is an ethylenebisstearamide product.
- Although the lubricants disclosed in these two patents are especially developed for warm compaction and work well in many cases it has been found that different problems are encountered when these lubricants are used in metal compositions intended for large scale production of sintered components.
- An object of the present invention is to reduce or eliminate current problems associated with large scale production.
- Another object is to provide a new type of lubricant useful in metal compositions intended for compaction at elevated temperatures.
- Still another problem is to provide an iron-based powder composition distinguished by excellent flow rate and apparent density.
- A further object is to provide a powder composition, which generates a minimum of dust and the preparation of which does not require the use of organic solvents.
- Another object is to provide a method for warm compaction such a metal powder composition.
- These objects are achieved by a powder composition comprising an iron-based powder, at least one oligomer amide type lubricant, at least one fatty acid and optionally one or more additives such as flow agents, processing aids and hard phases.
- The method according to the invention includes the steps of
- mixing and heating the iron-based powder, the lubricant, the fatty acid and the additive, if any, to a temperature above the melting point of the lubricant and
- cooling the obtained mixture.
- As used in the description and the appended claims, the expression “iron-based powder” encompasses powder essentially made up of pure iron; iron powder that has been prealloyed with other substances improving the strength, the hardening properties, the electromagnetic properties or other desirable properties of the end products; and particles of iron mixed with particles of such alloying elements (diffusion annealed mixture or purely mechanical mixture). Examples of alloying elements are nickel, copper, molybdenum, chromium, manganese, phosphorus, carbon in the form of graphite, and tungsten, which are used either separately or in combination, e.g. in the form of compounds (Fe3 P and FeMo). Unexpectedly good results are obtained when the lubricants according to the invention are used in combination with iron-based powders having high compressability. Generally, such powders have a low carbon content, preferably below 0.04% by weight. Such powders include e.g. Distaloy AE, Astaloy Mo and ASC 100.29, all of which are commercially available from Hoganas AB, Sweden.
- The lubricant used according to the present invention may be represented by the following formula:
- D—Cm—B—A—B—Cm—D

- B is amino or carbonyl
- A is alkylen having 4-16 C atoms optionally including up to 4 O atoms
- m is an integer 1-10

- Preferably the lubricant has the chemical structure wherein D is COR, wherein R is an aliphatic group 16-20 C atoms, C is —NH (CH)nCO— wherein n is 5 or 11; B is amino; A is alkylen having 6-14 C atoms optionally including up to 3O atoms, and m is an integer 2-5.
- Examples of such lubricants may be selected from the group consisting of
- CH3(CH2)16CO—[HN(CH2)11CO]2—HN(CH2)12NH—[OC(CH2)11NH]2—OC (CH2)16CH3
- CH3(CH2)16CO—[HN(CH2)11CO]2—HN(CH2)12NH—[OC(CH2)11NH]3—OC (CH2)16CH3

- The oligomer amide type lubricant, which is added to the iron-based powder is preferably in the form of a solid powder, can make up 0.1-1% by weight of the metal-powder composition, preferably 0.2-0.8% by weight, based on the total amount of the metal-powder composition. The possibility of using the lubricant according to the present invention in low amounts is an especially advantageous feature of the invention, since it enables high densities to be achieved
- The fatty acid used according to the present inventions is preferably a fatty acid having 10-22 C atoms. Examples of such acids are oleic acid, stearic acid and palmitic acid. Although the amount of the fatty acid is small, the effects on flow rate and apparent density are remarkable. The amount of the fatty acid is normally 0.015-0.15, preferably 0.02-0.08 and most preferably 0.03-0.07% calculated on the total weight of the powder composition.
- The melting point of the fatty acid should be lower than that of the amide oligomer lubricant.
- Apart from the iron-based powder and the lubricant, the new powder composition may contain one or more additives selected from the group consisting of processing aids and hard phases.
- The processing aids used in the metal-powder composition may consist of talc, forsterite, manganese sulphide, sulphur, molybdenum disulphide, boron nitride, tellurium, selenium, barium difluoride and calcium difluoride, which are used either separately or in combination.

The flow agent, which is preferably a silicon dioxide, is used in an amount from about 0.005 to about 2 percent by weight, preferably from about 0.01 to about 1 percent by weight, and more preferably from about 0.025 to about 0.5 percent by weight, based on the total weight of the metallurgical composition. Furthermore, the flow agent should have an average particle size below about 40 nanometers. Preferred silicon oxides are the silicon dioxide materials, both hydrophilic and hydrophobic forms, commercially available as the Aerosil line of silicon dioxides, such as the Aerosil 200 and R812 products, from Degussa Corporation.
- According to an embodiment of the invention the iron-based powder, at least one oligomer amide type lubricant, at least one fatty acid and optionally one or more additives, such as processing aids and hard phases, are heated to a temperature above the melting point of the lubricant; the obtained mixture is subsequently cooled to a temperature below the melting point of the lubricant and above the melting point of the fatty acid and a pulverulent flow agent is added to the obtained mixture, which is then mixed and cooled.
- FIG. 1 shows the effect of the combination of the oligomer amide type lubricant defined above and a fatty acid (stearic acid) on the apparent density.
