Abstract

A sintered alloy is produced from mixed powder containing first hard particles, second hard particles, graphite particles, and iron particles. The first hard particles are Fe—Mo—Ni—Co—Mn—Si—C-based alloy particles, the second hard particles are Fe—Mo—Si-based alloy particles, the mixed powder contains 5 to 50 mass % of the first hard particles, 1 to 8 mass % of the second hard particles, and 0.5 to 1.5 mass % of the graphite particles, when total mass of the first hard particles, the second hard particles, the graphite particles, and the iron particles is set as 100 mass %.

Claims (32)

1. A production method of a sintered alloy comprising:

compacting mixed powder containing first hard particles, second hard particles, graphite particles, and iron particles into a sintered-alloy compact; and

sintering the sintered-alloy compact while diffusing carbons in the graphite particles of the sintered-alloy compact into the first hard particles, the second hard particles, and the iron particles, wherein

the first hard particles contain 20 to 70 mass % of Mo, 5 to 40 mass % of Ni, 5 to 40 mass % of Co, 1 to 20 mass % of Mn, 0.5 to 4.0 mass % of Si, 0.5 to 3.0 mass % of C, and a remainder including Fe and unavoidable impurities, when the first hard particles have 100 mass %,

the second hard particles contain 60 to 70 mass % of Mo, and 2.0 mass % or less of Si, and a remainder including Fe and unavoidable impurities, when the second hard particles have 100 mass %, and

the mixed powder contains 5 to 50 mass % of the first hard particles, 1 to 8 mass % of the second hard particles, and 0.5 to 1.5 mass % of the graphite particles, when total mass of the first hard particles, the second hard particles, the graphite particles, and the iron particles is set as 100 mass %.

2. The production method according to claim 1 , wherein

when the first hard particles have 100 mass %, the first particles further contain 10 mass % or less of Cr.

3. The production method according to claim 1 , wherein

a particle size of the second hard particles is 75 μm or smaller.

4. The production method according to claim 1 , wherein

the sintered-alloy compact is sintered by being heated to 1050° C. to 1250° C.

5. The production method according to claim 1 , wherein

when the first hard particles have 100 mass %, the first hard particles contain 30 to 50 mass % of Mo, 20 to 40 mass % of Ni, 10 to 30 mass % of Co, 2 to 8 mass % of Mn, 0.5 to 2.0 mass % of Si, and 0.5 to 2.0 mass % of C.

6. A compact for sintering comprising:

7. The compact for sintering according to claim 6 , wherein

when the first hard particles have 100 mass %, the first hard particles further contains 10 mass % or less of Cr.

8. The compact for sintering according to claim 6 , wherein

a particle size of the second hard particles is 75 μm or smaller.

9. The compact for sintering according to claim 6 , wherein

when the first hard particles have 100 mass %, the first hard particles contain 30 to 50 mass % of Mo, 20 to 40 mass % of Ni, 10 to 30 mass % of Co, 2 to 8 mass % of Mn, 0.5 to 2.0 mass % of Si, and 0.5 to 2.0 mass % of C.

10. A sintered alloy obtained by sintering a compact comprising

first hard particles containing 20 to 70 mass % of Mo, 5 to 40 mass % of Ni, 5 to 40 mass % of Co, 1 to 20 mass % of Mn, 0.5 to 4.0 mass % of Si, 0.5 to 3.0 mass % of C, and a remainder including Fe and unavoidable impurities, when the first hard particles have 100 mass %;
