Abstract
Description
[0001] This application claims the priority benefit of U.S. Provisional Application Ser. No. 60 / 692,387, filed Jun. 20, 2005, which is herein incorporated by reference in its entirety.FIELD OF THE INVENTION
[0002] The present invention relates to metallurgical powder compositions, compacted articles prepared from metallurgical powder compositions, and methods of making the same. More particularly, the present invention is directed to corrosion resistant metallurgical powder compositions, corrosion resistant compacted articles prepared from metallurgical powder compositions, and methods of preparing the same. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
[0003] Iron-based particles have long been used as a base material in the manufacture of structural components by powder metallurgical techniques. These techniques involve first compacting iron-based particles in a die under high pressures in order to produce an article having a desired shape. After the compacting step, the structural component may un...
