Abstract

Provided is a Fe—Al-based alloy vibration-damping component including 4.0 to 12.0% by mass of Al with the balance being Fe and inevitable impurities, having an average crystal grain size in the range of over 700 μm to 2,000 μm and a sectional defect rate of lower than 0.1%, and having an irregular sectional shape. Also provided is a method for manufacturing a Fe—Al-based alloy vibration-damping component. The method obtains a vibration-damping component having an irregular sectional shape, and includes a shaping step in which metal powder including 4.0 to 12.0% by mass of Al with the balance being Fe and inevitable impurities is melted and solidified using a heat source with a scanning rate set to 700 to 1700 mm/second to obtain a shaped product and an annealing step in which the shaped product is annealed at a temperature of 800 to 1200° C.

Claims (6)

1. A Fe—Al-based alloy vibration-damping component comprising:

4.0 to 12.0% by mass of Al, with the balance being Fe and inevitable impurities, and

having an average crystal grain size in a range of over 740 μm to 2000 μm and a sectional defect rate of lower than 0.1%, and having an irregular sectional shape.

2. A method for manufacturing a Fe—Al-based alloy vibration-damping component, obtaining a vibration-damping component having an irregular sectional shape, the method comprising:

a shaping step in which metal powder comprising 4.0 to 12.0% by mass of Al with the balance being Fe and inevitable impurities is melted and solidified using a heat source with a scanning rate set to 700 mm/s to 1700 mm/s to obtain a shaped product; and

an annealing step in which the shaped product is annealed at a temperature of 800 to 1200° C. to obtain the vibration-damping component having an average crystal grain size in a range of over 740 μm to 2000 μm.
