Abstract: A manufacturing method of alloy powder includes shaping a flowing fluid made of coolant liquid into a liquid film which has a predetermined thickness between 0.1 mm and 15 mm by continuously supplying the coolant liquid from a nozzle onto an inner wall of a drum; applying a predetermined acceleration to the liquid film along a thickness direction of the liquid film, wherein the predetermined acceleration has a value between 2.0×104 G and 1.0×107 G; supplying the liquid film with molten alloy which is not divided into a size of the predetermined thickness or less; and dividing the molten alloy into the size of the predetermined thickness or less by the flowing fluid to make alloy particles, and keeping the alloy particles in the liquid film by the predetermined acceleration so that the alloy particles are continuously in contact with the flowing fluid so as to be cooled.

Abstract: An alloy powder manufacturing apparatus includes a substrate, at least one nozzle, and at least one alloy supply part. The nozzle forms a liquid film having a predetermined thickness by supplying a high-speed fluid formed from a cooling liquid onto the substrate in such a manner as to apply a predetermined acceleration to the liquid film along a thickness direction. The alloy supply part supplies a molten alloy to the liquid film without dividing same into a size equal to or less than a predetermined thickness. Particles are formed by dividing the molten alloy into a size equal to or less than the predetermined thickness by means of the high-speed fluid, and the particles are cooled in a condition in which the particles are retained in the liquid film by means of the predetermined acceleration and kept in contact with the high-speed fluid.

Abstract: A manufacturing method of alloy powder comprises a liquid film forming step, a supplying step and a dividing step. In the liquid film forming step, a high speed fluid made of coolant liquid is shaped into a liquid film which has a predetermined thickness of 0.1 mm or more and receives a predetermined acceleration of 2.0×104G or more along a thickness direction. In the supplying step, molten alloy which is not divided into a size of the predetermined thickness or less is supplied to the liquid film. In the dividing step, the molten alloy is divided into the size of the predetermined thickness or less by the high speed fluid to make alloy particles and keeping the alloy particles in the liquid film by the predetermined acceleration so that the alloy particles are continuously cooled in the high speed fluid.

Abstract: Alloy powder includes particles. The particles include specific particles. Each of the specific particles has a surface layer on which a divided trace is formed, the divided trace being a mark at which molten alloy is divided; and the divided trace has at least a hill-like ridge aggregate structure or a combination of a crater structure and the hill-like ridge aggregate structure, the hill-like ridge aggregate structure being an aggregate of a plurality of hill-like ridges.
