preparation example Construction

[0019] A kind of preparation method of fine spherical stainless steel powder, flow process is as follows figure 1 shown, follow the steps below:

[0020] 1. Establish a stable argon plasma torch: input 0.5MPa, 0.6MPa or 0.8MPa continuous main working gas argon flow into the plasma reactor, auxiliary working gas hydrogen input pressure is 0.5MPa, 0.6 MPa or 0.8MPa, induction coil Load to a certain power, the power can be 20 kW, 30 kW or 50 kW, at the same time the igniter discharges, the high voltage coil is inductively coupled and the igniter corona is triggered, and the argon gas is ionized to generate an argon plasma torch. At this time, maintaining a negative pressure in the entire plasma reactor can ensure the stable operation of the plasma torch.

[0021] 2. Use nitrogen gas to inject water atomized irregular stainless steel powder (raw powder) into the high temperature zone of the core of the argon plasma torch for heating. The heating time ends with the gas powder flo...

Abstract

The invention relates to a stainless steel powder preparation method for metal powder injection molding, in particular to a method for preparing superfine spherical stainless steel powder by plasma spherifying. Stable argon plasmas are constructed, and plasma parameters are adjusted, so that a water-atomized irregular stainless steel powder raw material is heated, and is separated to obtain the superfine spherical stainless steel powder after being cooled and cured, and compared with the original water-atomized irregular stainless steel powder raw material, spherified stainless steel powder has higher flowability, tap density and purity. According to the method, the problems of poor flowability, low apparent density, low operational performance and the like caused by irregular shapes such as a flake shape, a strip shape and a branch shape in the conventional water-atomized stainless steel powder are solved, the quality of the stainless steel powder and the performance of a stainless steel product are improved, the added value and the market competitiveness of the water-atomized stainless steel powder are improved, and the method is low in cost.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to a method for preparing stainless steel powder for metal powder injection molding, in particular to a method for preparing fine spherical stainless steel powder. Background technique [0002] The new powder metallurgy near-net shape technology with the fastest development and the most application potential in the international powder metallurgy field is known as the most popular component preparation technology today.
