W artykule przedstawiono analizę wpływu składu chemicznego na strukturę oraz właściwości spiekanych stali Mo-Ni oraz Mo-Ni-Cu, wytwarzanych na bazie proszków hybrydowych. Prasowanie przeprowadzono w stalowej matrycy pod ciśnieniem 660 MPa, otrzymując kształtki zgodne z normą PN-EN ISO 2740. Spiekanie prowadzono w temperaturze 1250°C, w atmosferze o składzie 95% N2+5% H2 przez 60 minut. Po spiekaniu stale były poddane zabiegowi sinterhardening-u, polegającego na ich hartowaniu bezpośrednio z temperatury spiekania. W tym stanie obróbki badane stale charakteryzowały się strukturą bainityczno- austenityczną. Stal zawierająca miedź charakteryzowała się wyższą wytrzymałością na rozciąganie 722 MPa oraz niższym wydłużeniem 1,66%, w porównaniu do stali Mo-Ni: Rm= 618 MPa, A = 2,67%.

The aim of the study was to evaluate the effect of chemical composition on the structure and mechanical properties of Mo-Ni and Mo-Ni-Cu PM steels based on hybrid powders. Green compacts were single pressed in a steel die at 660 MPa according to PN-EN ISO 2740 standard. Sinterhardening was carried out at 1250°C in a mixture 95% N2+5% for 60 minutes. The microstructures of the steels were mainly bainitic-austenitic. The steel with copper addition had a higher strength, UTS of 722 MPa, and lower elongation, 1,66%, when compared to Mo-Ni PM steel: UTS 618 MPa, elongation 2.67%.

The aim of the study was to examine how a reduction of Mn content in PM steels will affect their plastic and strength properties. The results of mechanical, metallographic and fractography tests of sintered (PM) steels containing 1% and 2% Mn are reported and compared with those for 3% Mn PM steel. Höganäs iron powder grade NC 100.24, low-carbon ferromanganese Elkem and graphite powder grade C-UF were used as the starting powders. Powder mixes Fe-(1-2)%Mn-0.8%C were prepared in a Turbula mixer for 30 minutes. Following mixing, “dog bone” compacts were single pressed at 660 MPa, according to PN-EN ISO 2740 standard. Sintering of compacts was carried out in a laboratory tube furnace at 1120°C and 1250°C for 60 minutes in a mixture of 95%N2 – 5%H2 in a semi-closed container. Three types of heat treatment were then used: sinterhardening (cooling rate – 66°C/min), slow furnace cooling (cooling rate 3.5°C/min) and tempering at 200°C. The studies have shown a beneficial effect of the reduction of manganese on plastic properties (up to 7.96%), while maintaining fracture strengths (UTSs) comparable to those of steel with higher contents of manganese. Currently detailed studies of steel containing 1%Mn are conducted.

Sintered steels with the addition of manganese are widely used in industry because of their attractive mechanical properties. The main problem of using manganese in powder metallurgy steel production is its high affinity for oxygen. The choice of proper sintering parameters can significantly improve the properties of the final product. For the present investigations Höganäs iron powder grade NC 100.24, low-carbon (1.3%C) ferromanganese Elkem (Eramet Norway Sauda – formerly Elkem Manganese Sauda) and graphite powder grade C-UF were used as the starting powders. Mixture of powders, containing 3% Mn and 0.8% C, was prepared in Turbula mixer for 30 minutes. Following mixing, “dog bone” compacts were pressed at 660 MPa according to PN-EN ISO 2740 standard. Sintering of compacts was carried out in the laboratory tube furnace at 1120 and 1250°C for 60 minutes in air or pure nitrogen (99.999%N2). The present investigation deals with the comparison of two heat treatment routes: sinterhardening (SH) and sinteraustempering (SAT), carried out both in air and pure nitrogen. Mechanically tested steels were investigated using JEOL JSM 700F completed with EDS. Metallography tests were carried out on 3% Nital etched samples. In this paper the results of mechanical tests and metallography and fractography investigations are shown. According to the results obtained, it can be assumed that for sinteraustempering higher temperature does not influence mechanical properties of sintered steels. For both methods using pure nitrogen as sintering atmosphere gave better results.
