Definitions
- the present invention sets out to provide a different route for the production of ferrous metal strip (particularly but not exclusively, strip in the range of 0.001 of an inch to 0.02 of an inch in thickness) using powdered metal as the starting material.
- said coating comprising a suspension of powdered ferrous metal in an aqueous film-forming binder material
- ferrous metal includes substantially pure iron and iron alloys in which iron is the major constituent.
- the binder material is a cellulose derivative e.g., a ce1lulose ether such as methyl cellulose.
- the objective is to produce cohension between the metal particles without heating the green strip (i.e., the strip after compaction but prior to sintering) to the melting point of the metal.
- This objective can be achieved in the case of soft iron and mild steel powders formed in a coating of from 0.001 to 0.005 of an inch thick by maintaining the green strip at a temperature of from about 750 to 1,200C. for a period which will normally be of the order of to 60 seconds, for example seconds.
- the sintering step may, however, be carried out at any temperature up to l,400C. for an appropriate time up to 4 minutes.
- the sintering step should be carried out in a reducing atmosphere, for example in hydrogen or cracked ammonia. Any further sintering operations carried out in the strip may be effected under similar conditions.
- the temperature and period of sintering will vary according to the nature of the metal powder and final properties required. in the case of stainless steel powders for example, the temperature and duration of sintering would be up to l,400C. for up to a period of about four minutes.
- the binder used for forming the suspension with the powdered metal is preferably a film-forming binder material which is readily volatilised in the sintering step.
- the binder composition is in the form of an aqueous solution of dispersion and may or may not require heating to induce film-forming. Film-forming cellulose derivatives have proved to be suitable and in addition to other advantages have the advantage of low cost.
- a typical binder composition may be made by forming a 1.5 percent by weight aqueous methyl cellulose solution and a satisfactory suspension may be made with iron powder by mixing percent by weight of iron powder with 30 percent by weight of this solution.
- the resulting suspension is a viscous mass which can be readily coated onto a support surface such as a belt or drum.
- the suspension may be deposited onto the support surface by any of the known coating methods.
- the preferred methods are by roller coating or extrusion but alternative methods include spraying and using a doctor blade.
- relatively thick strip for example, of the order of 0.02 inch, it is advisable to employ a suspension having a low water content (in order to avoid possible subsequent difficulties in removing residual water from the selfsupporting layer) and in such cases it may be more convenient to deposit the viscous suspension by extrusion.
- the viscosity of the slurry should be between 1,000 and 10,000 centipoises. In high speed deposition relatively low viscosity slurries are preferred e.g. between 3,000 and 5,000 centipoises.
- the viscosity of the slurry can be varied by employing a higher or lower proportion of binder material.
- the water is preferably removed by forced drying although in some circumstances some or all of the water may be allowed to evaporate at normal ambient temperature.
- the function of the support surface is to support the coating of powdered metal and binder until the binder has formed a self-supporting film and as indicated above the support surface is conveniently a metal belt or drum e.g., of stainless steel.
- a very thin metal coating for example 0.0005 inch in thickness may be plated onto one or both sides of the strip after the first compaction and/or sintering.
- the size of the metal particles employed in the process of the present invention depends upon the thickness of the strip which it is desired to fabricate. In the manufacture of steel strip of the order of 0.001 to 0.005 inch in thickness, iron powder having a particle size in the order of minus 300 British Standard mesh is suitable. Clearly, the smaller the particle size of the powdered metal, the higher the density of the metal strip produced after the first rolling and sintering. Naturally, when producing comparatively thick strip, the particle size of the powder need not be so small.
- Ferrous metal powder of the desired particle size may be produced in a number of ways.
- One of the cheapest sources of iron powder is by milling sponge iron produced by direct reduction of iron oxide concentrates.
- Other sources of powdered metal include condensation of metal vapours and precipitation of metal from solution.
- a promising source of cheap iron powder is waste pickle liquor which contains quantities of ferrous chloride.
- a powder product can be obtained by reduction of the ferrous chloride with hydrogen.
- the strip may be subjected to an additional rolling operation followed by an additional sintering step. This has the effect of increasing the density of the product and improving its mechanical properties.
- the strip may be subjected to a light planishing in order to improve its shape and appearance.
- the rolling loads employed in the first compaction step are not critical but it is preferred to roll at 2 to 30 tons per inch width. For example, using 12 inch diameter rolls in a two high mill an 0.004 inch mild steel strip was typically rolled at tons per inch width in the first compaction.
- first compacted densities e.g. 80 percent and usually -90 percent of theoretical density
- relatively moderate rolling loads e.g., up to 20 tons- /inch width using 12 inch diameter rolls.
- the first sintering times are kept short, e.g., 24O seconds, so that little or no spherodisation of porosity occurs but sufficient strength is obtained to allow the subsequent processing.
- the amount and shape of the porosity is such that a fully dense material (e.g. 99 percent theoretical density) can be achieved with the minimum of rolling.
- rolling reductions in the second pass are typically up to 15 percent extension (resulting in a 10 percent to 30 percent reduction in thickness) and this can be achieved in a single pass through a rolling mill.
- the second compaction is followed by a second sinter, which preferably is an in-line treatment similar to the first sinter, although batch heat treatments can be effected in the second sinter.
- the process of the present invention enables alloy strips of accurately determined composition to be prepared by virtue of the fact that the powdered ingredients of the alloy can be accurately measured for incorporation in the coating. Normally, however, a powdered alloy is used when making an alloy strip. Furthermore, since the metal strip is produced in accordance with the invention with a minimum of rolling operations the metallurgical changes occurring in the production of the strip from the powdered metal layer are minimised.
- a further advantage arising from the manufacture of metal strip from powdered metal is that materials can be produced having special properties.
- the corrosion-resistant material may be a metal such as nickel, or chromium and in such a case the coating may be applied by plating the iron powder prior to forming the coating of powdered metal. It has been found that iron powder can be readily plated with about 4 percent by weight of nickel and the resulting strip has very pronounced corrosionresistant properties.
- a self-supporting coating containing nickel plated iron powder can be compacted and sintered to produce a steel strip having corrosion-resistant properties without breaking the coating around the iron powder.
- Metal strip having other special properties may also be produced and it has been found useful to plate stainless steel powders with iron in order to reduce the necessary sintering temperature.
- Plating of the powder may be achieved using an electroless plating solution or by making the powder the cathode of an electrolyte cell.
- FIG. 1 is a schematic drawing of apparatus for producing ferrous strip.
- a reservoir 1 contains a supply of metal powder binder suspension and this is transferred by a series of rollers 2 to an endless steel belt 3, the thickness of the coating being controllable by the spacing and speed of the rollers.
- a drying oven 4 in which the water is evaporated.
- the drying oven preferably incorporates a forced air supply.
- the strip After passage through the drying oven 3, or where no drying oven is present, over the radiant heater, and after cooling, the strip is sufficiently self-supporting to be handled and it is then passed through the rollers 5 and 6 of a two high mill where the strip is compacted. These rollers are normally adjusted to apply a rolling load of between 2 and 30 tons eg tons per inch width of the coating.
- a sintering furnace 7 which contains a reducing atmosphere, such as hydrogen or cracked ammonia and which is maintained at a temperature of between 750 and l,200 C. The speed of travel of the strip is adjusted so that the strip is preferably heated to this temperature for a period of between and 30 seconds.
- the green strip between the first compaction and sintering steps, though capable of being handled is still somewhat fragile and care is necessary, particularly in the sintering furnace 7 since there is a very short stage when the binder has been burnt off and the temperature has not risen sufficiently for sintering of themetal particles to occur.
- the green strip is conveniently transported through the furnace on a metal belt, which may be a mesh belt in order to reduce the amount of heat removed from the furnace.
- the green strip may be passed through the furnace on a cushion of reducing gas, gas curtain seals being provided at each end of the furnace to reduce loss of gas and lateral gas streams being used to guide the strip through the furnace.
- the bed of the furnace may comprise a series of closely spaced rotating rollers.
- the strip produced after passage through the furnace 7 is a commercially useful product but its properties can be improved by subjecting it to an additional rolling by passage through a rolling mill 8 and an additional sintering step in a sintering furnace 9.
- the rolling mill 8 is set to apply a rolling load which preferably produces a percentage extension of l to 5% and the sintering furnace 9 has a reducing atmosphere and operates at a similar temperature to furnace 7.
- the shape and surface qualities of the strip may be improved by passage through a pair of planishing rollers 10 and 11 from which the strip can then be coiled on a roll 12. If desired the strip may be subjected to carburising or chromising either during or after one or both of the sintering steps.
- a process for the production of ferrous strip from ferrous metal powder comprising the steps of:
- said coating comprising a slurry formed of a suspension of powdered ferrous metal in an aqueous film-forming binder material
- a process as claimed in claim 1 wherein said slurry has a viscosity between approximately 1,000 centipoises and approximately 10,000 centipoises.
