Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for producing a shaped piece from a silver-based contact material.
  • the invention further relates to such a contact material and a shaped piece made from such a contact material.

  • Representatives of the silver-based metallic contact materials are, for example, silver-nickel (AgNi) and silver-iron (AgFe). Silver-iron oxide (AgFe 2 ⁇ 3) may be mentioned as a representative of the oxidic contact materials.
  • oxidic contact materials have a lower tendency to weld than metallic contact materials, the latter have a longer service life, especially with small currents.
  • Silver-nickel contact materials in particular have good switching properties, but it is disadvantageous that the nickel dust which forms during production or during operation due to abrasion and that which forms as a switching product Nickel oxide can have a harmful effect on the human organism.
  • a silver-based contact material is known from EP 0 586 411 B1, which contains the metals iron and rhenium in mass proportions between 1% and 50% or between 0.01% and 5% as active components. It was recognized that rhenium improves the properties of such a contact material even in proportions below 1%.
  • the contact material mentioned is characterized by a low contact heating with stable heating behavior, acceptable welding tendency and a long service life in relation to predetermined switching currents.
  • the silver-iron-rhenium contact material is produced by mixing silver and iron-rhenium alloy powder or by mixing separate powders of silver, iron and rhenium.
  • the powder mixture is then processed by compression molding or extrusion and sintering into molded parts or semi-finished products.
  • the structure of such a material i.e. the size and the distribution of the active components in the silver matrix is predetermined by the grain size of the metal powder or alloy powder available on the market.
  • the use of coarse metal powders leads to a coarse-grained structure, of fine-grained metal powders to a fine-grained structure.
  • the finest iron powders produced in technically relevant quantities have an average grain size of approximately 5 ⁇ m.
  • Iron-rhenium powders are produced by atomizing a corresponding melt and also have an average grain size of approx. 5 ⁇ m or more.
  • the powder mixture is pressed into a molding by compression molding, which is produced by sintering and optionally further pressing Fitting is processed.
  • the shaped part can additionally be pressed with a layer of pure silver to securely connect the contact piece to the base by brazing.
  • the active components added in powder form with a uniform grain size are distributed irregularly over the silver matrix.
  • the structure of the fitting is largely isotropic.
  • the powder mixture is first pressed and / or sintered into a porous compact or slug.
  • the compact or slug optionally with a layer of pure silver (see above), is pressed by extrusion into a strand from which the shaped pieces are separated and possibly subjected to a subsequent treatment.
  • the powder grains of the silver and possibly the active components are deformed or aligned in the extrusion direction, as a result of which an anisotropic, namely linear structure is formed.
  • the contact material Due to the structure of the contact material, its electrical switching properties, e.g. Burning, contact resistance and welding force, largely determined.
  • WO 95/08833 A1 describes a method for connecting a contact piece made of a silver-metal oxide material to a carrier by brazing or welding.
  • the metal oxide of the contact material is at least partially reduced to metal in the region of the contact piece near the surface. A resulting structural change which has a favorable influence on the switching properties of the contact piece or the contact material is not achieved.
  • the method described is only suitable for the manufacture thin, weldable and solderable layers down to a few 100 ⁇ m.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a production method for a molded piece made of a contact material and such a contact material itself which has switching properties which are more favorable than the prior art. Furthermore, it is an object of the invention to provide a contact piece made of the contact material which, due to improved switching properties, is particularly suitable for a switching device in energy technology.
  • This object is achieved according to the invention with regard to the method for producing a shaped piece from a silver-based contact material by forming a powder mixture of silver and a metal oxide, which is processed into the shaped piece by powder metallurgy, and reducing the metal oxide to metal .
  • the invention is based on the knowledge that a contact material with a fine structure exhibits better switching behavior than a contact material with a coarse structure.
  • the range of properties of a contact material can be significantly improved by reducing the average grain size of the active components in the silver matrix.
  • Active components is less than 1 ⁇ m.
  • Such a contact material can, however, not be produced using known powder-metallurgical manufacturing processes using commercially available metal powders, the average grain size of which is in the range of a few microns.
  • metal oxide powders are available whose grain sizes are significantly smaller than 1 ⁇ m
  • the use of metal oxide powder instead of metal powder and subsequent reduction of the metal oxide enables a contact material to be obtained in which the average grain size the metallic active components are in the nanometer range.
  • the use of metal oxide powders can be carried out under less strict transport and processing regulations, since in contrast to metal oxide powders, many metal powders are self-igniting. In this way, the manufacturing costs can be reduced.
  • the reduction of the metal oxide advantageously takes place in the powder mixture, since a complete reduction of the metal oxide is made more difficult by the increasing compression of the powder mixture in subsequent work steps.
  • the reduction of the metal oxide can also take place in a blank of the shaped piece, which still has a sufficiently high porosity or gas permeability.
  • a blank is, for example, the slug to be made available in extrusion technology, which is subsequently pressed into an extrusion.
  • such a blank can also be a preliminary product for a molded part produced in the molding technology, before the molded part is produced therefrom by pressing and sintering again.
  • the reduction of the metal oxide is expediently achieved by heat treatment in a reducing atmosphere. It is particularly effective if the heat treatment is carried out in a temperature range of 500 ° C. below the melting point of silver, ie taking into account the admixed active components at a temperature between 500 ° C. and 1000 ° C., preferably at 700 ° C. becomes.
  • the reducing atmosphere can also be used as a protective gas for any sintering that may be required. Sintering and reduction can thereby Position of the contact material takes place in one operation.
  • the gas hydrogen (H 2 ) usually used for the sintering is advantageously also used as the reducing atmosphere.
  • the sintering and pressing processes necessary in powder metallurgical manufacturing processes can lead to a conglomeration of the active component supplied in powder form. This is particularly the case if the active component is supplied in the form of a powder of a metal oxide with very small grain sizes. Grain sizes of the active component that are favorable for the switching properties can be achieved in the contact material if a powder with a grain size of less than 1 ⁇ m, preferably from 100 to 500 nm, is used as the metal oxide.
  • Metal oxide is added. As described, the further metal oxide is reduced to a further metal. However, it is also conceivable to add the further metal oxide only after the powder mixture has been reduced. In this case, the contact material produced would have an oxidic active component.

  • the further processing into a contact piece takes place according to the extrusion technique described under known conditions.
  • the composition of the powder mixture is such that the sum of the mass fractions of the active components iron (Fe) and rhenium (Re) is 8.8% in the finished material, the ratio of iron to rhenium being 19/1.

Abstract

Pour produire une pièce façonnée à partir d'un matériau de contact à base d'argent, il est prévu selon l'invention de préparer un mélange pulvérulent d'argent et d'un oxyde de métal, et de le traiter selon un procédé de métallurgie des poudres, pour obtenir la pièce façonnée, l'oxyde de métal étant réduit en poudre. Les poudres d'oxyde de métal s'obtenant dans une granulation nettement plus fine que les poudres de métal, on peut obtenir un matériau de contact dont la grosseur granulaire moyenne du métal incorporé comme constituant actif est inférieure à 1 νm. Cette granulation fine confère à un matériau de contact de ce type des propriétés de commutation particulièrement avantageuses.
