Description

technical field

[0001] The invention relates to plastic forming technology and powder metallurgy technology, in particular to an iron-based powder metallurgy material reinforced by tungsten carbide (WC) particles and a preparation method thereof. Background technique

[0002] Iron-based materials have been widely used because of their cheap price, abundant resources, superior performance and easy realization of large-scale production. However, with the development of modern industry and science and technology, higher requirements are put forward for their comprehensive mechanical properties. An existing Fe-Cu-Ni-Mo-C powder metallurgy material belongs to high-strength heat-treated steel, which is mainly composed of matrix iron and alloying elements. However, its friction and wear resistance is relatively low, it is easy to deform at high temperatures, and the heat treatment process is complicated. , which limits the application of this kind of material to some extent.
