A new pre-alloyed metal based powder, intended to be used in surface coating of metal parts. The powder is deposited using e.g. laser cladding or plasma transfer arc welding (PTA), or thermal spray (e.g. HVOF). The powder is useful for reducing friction and improving wear reducing properties of the deposited coating. Such coatings may also improve machinability. As friction or wear reducing component, inclusions of manganese sulphide or tungsten sulphide in the pre-alloyed powder may be used.

Metal powders and use thereof

An iron-chromium based brazing filler metal is provided which exhibits an excellent wetting behavior on a stainless steel base material. The brazing filler metal produces a brazed joint which exhibits high strength and good corrosion resistance. The brazing filler metal is suitable for brazing stainless steel and other materials where corrosion resistance and high strength is required. Typical examples of applications are heat exchangers and catalytic converters. The iron-chromium based brazing filler metal powder according to the invention comprises: between 11 and 35 wt % chromium, between 0 and 30 wt % nickel, between 2 and 20 wt % copper, between 2 and 6 wt % silicon, between 4 and 8 wt % phosporous, between 0-10 wt % manganese, and at least 20 wt % iron.

Iron-chromium based brazing filler metal

The invention concerns a stainless steel powder comprising at least 10% chromium by weight. The powder further comprises vanadium in an amount of at least 4 times the amount of carbon and nitrogen. Preferably the steel powder comprises 10-30% chromium, 0.1-1% vanadium, 0.5-1.5% silicon, at least 0.1% carbon and at least 0.07% nitrogen. The invention also concerns a powder metallurgical composition containing said steel powder, a process for preparing and a compacted and sintered part made of said composition.

Stainless steel powder

The present invention concerns a powder metal composition for producing powder metal components comprising a Co-based pre-alloyed powder, with irregularly shaped particles comprising at least 15% by weight Cr and less than 0.3% by weight C, admixed with graphite. The invention also concerns a method for producing PM components by pressing of articles to shape from the powder metal composition according to the invention and sintering them.
