Abstract
A method of producing a finished essentially 100% dense homogenous alloyed metallic product. First, a metal powder is provided comprised of particles with each particle having a predetermined alloy content. Next, the metal powder is blended with a mixture of a lubricant and a binder to form a composite powder. That composite powder is then compacted in a compacting die at room temperature to form a green part. The lubricant and binder are then removed by heating the green part to at least a first temperature profile in a confined atmosphere with a predetermined dew point profile. Next, the remaining green part is heated to a second temperature higher than the first temperature and with predetermined dew point and H/HO ratio in a furnace atmosphere to remove surface oxides from the part. Finally, the part is densified into a finished or near net shape homogenous alloyed product.
