AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing technologies struggle to achieve uniform vulcanization on complex-shaped iron-based sintered materials such as irregular or curved surfaces, resulting in unsatisfactory friction reduction effects. Furthermore, the vulcanization process is inefficient and costly, particularly for bushing materials where vulcanization is uneven on the surface.

Method used

By dissolving sulfur in lubricating oil and immersing sintered materials at high temperature, the sulfur reacts with copper in the pores to generate Cu2S, while simultaneously filling the lubricating oil and forming a uniform sulfide layer. This process is simplified to a one-step operation, reducing energy consumption and costs.

Benefits of technology

Uniform sulfidation was achieved on iron-based sintered materials with complex shapes, reducing the friction coefficient, decreasing process steps and energy consumption, improving sulfidation uniformity and material stability, and significantly reducing production costs.

Abstract

The application discloses an iron-based sintered vulcanized material and a preparation method thereof. The chemical composition of the iron-based sintered vulcanized material comprises Fe and Cu, Cu2S exists in the microstructure, and lubricating oil is filled in the pores. The preparation method comprises the following steps: mixing raw materials, pressing, sintering to prepare a sintered material; adding sulfur into lubricating oil, heating to 118 DEG C-150 DEG C to obtain sulfur-containing lubricating oil; and immersing the sintered material into the sulfur-containing lubricating oil, and keeping at 118 DEG C-150 DEG C to obtain the sintered vulcanized material. In the step of adding sulfur into lubricating oil, the temperature is increased to above the melting point of sulfur, so that sulfur is dissolved in the lubricating oil. In the process of the sulfur-containing lubricating oil entering the material, copper in the surface pores continuously reacts with sulfur, so that Cu2S is formed in the pores. The preparation method provided by the application can simplify the preparation process of the sintered material, improve the production efficiency, and reduce the cost.
