Patent number: 4286987Abstract: An infiltrant product composition is disclosed for impregnating an iron powder compact. The infiltrant alleviates typical problems associated with use of infiltrating materials, including partial dissolution of iron base matrix by the infiltrant with consequent severe erosion, oxidizing or reducing effects of furnace atmospheres on infiltrant yield, and incompatible characteristics of infiltrant with the iron base matrix. The preferred infiltrant composition is by weight about 98.25% copper alloy and 1.75% carbonyl type iron powder. An additional 0.05% of aluminum to reduce residual formation and minimize residual adherence and 0.5% of a conventional lubricant based on the copper-iron mixture are added. The infiltrant is in a dry, compactible form.Type: GrantFiled: November 28, 1979Date of Patent: September 1, 1981Assignee: United States Bronze Powders, Inc.Inventor: Paul E. Matthews

Patent number: 4272285Abstract: In a process for producing a magnetic metal powder, a magnetic metal compound is reduced by wet reduction in a state mixed with a clay or is heat treated in the presence of a clay powder. Alternatively, a magnetic metal powder is prepared by reducing a magnetic metal powder by wet reduction or by reducing a magnetic metal compound in a state mixed with a clay by dry reduction, and then the resulting powder is heat treated in the presence of the clay powder. The clay is typically kaolin.Type: GrantFiled: July 11, 1980Date of Patent: June 9, 1981Assignee: TDK Electronics Co., Ltd.Inventor: Rioichi Horimoto
