PURE IRON POWDER

Characteristics of JIP pure iron powder

Properties of green compact Compressibility

1. Since both JIP iron powders, the stomized iron powder and reduced iron powder are made of highly pure materials and finished under reduction atmosphere of H2 gas with high purity, they show excellent compressibility. 2. The higher the apparent density, the better the compressibility. Compactibility 1. The compactibility of green compact is usually judged by the Rattler test (edge stability test). Both JIP reduced iron powder and atomized iron power show good compactibility under the test. 2. The lower the apparent density, the better the compactibility.

Properties of sintered products

1. JIP iron powders exhibit excellent reactivity with a variety of alloying elements, making it possible to produce high-strength sintered products. 2. As JIP iron powders are manufactured under the strict quality control system, they show extremely low variation in sintered product properties such as dimensional change. 3. As for dimensional change during sintering, reduced iron Composition : Fe-1.5% Cu-0.5% Gr-1% ZnSt powders tend to shrink more comparing with atomized iron Sintering temperature and time : 1130 20min. powder. This is one of the great features ofJIPreduced iron Sintering atmosphere : Endothermic gas, D.P. 0 powder.

1. Characteristics of Cr alloyed steel powder JIP 4100V, KIP 30CRV

1. Being produced by the Kawasaki-developed vacuum reduction process, JIP 4100V and JIP 30CRV are the steel powders with less oxygen, less carbon and less nitrogen contents in spite that they contain Cr, and thus offer high compressibility. 2. Nitrogen, hydrogen and vacuum atmosphere is suitable for sintering. 3. They are most idealistic for high strength, wear resistant parts. 4. JIP 30CRV is suitable for heat and wear resistant parts, and the sintered products exhibit excellent characteristice (high hardness, high tensile strength) in the as-sintered condition.

JIP CLEAN MIX

TM

What is JIP Clean Mix?

JIP Clean Mix is new premixed powder that we have developed to prevent segregation. In the ordinary blending method, graphite powder, as well as Ni, Cu, Mo, and other metallic powders, are blended with iron powder. However, in JIP Clean Mix, graphite and other additive powders are specially treated to make them adhere to iron powder. As a result, additives hardly segregate in JIP Clean Mix during transportation. In addition, little dust is generated and environmental impact is minimal, and the excellent fluidity improves the productivity of sintered parts. Furthermore, the stable dimensional accuracy reduces changes in dimensions of sintered parts.

ORDERING PROCEDURE
Please include the following informations in all orders and inquires for JIP.
1. Designation 2. Specific requirements as to chemical composition, apparent density, flow rate and particle size distribution. 3. Quantity 4. Detailed information pertaining to intended usee.g.,powder metallurgy, welding, etc. For use in powder metallurgy: Bearing or general structural parts Green density General information on adding elements General outline of shape of the end product Required mechanical properties of the sintered compact 5. Packaging and marking requirements 6. Delivery requirements (time and place) 7. Other important information for producing the ordered product

PRECAUTIONS FOR USE

Since iron powder oxidizes, JIP Clean Mix should be used as soon as possible. When storing leftover powder, bags should be completely resealed. JIP Clean Mix should not be stored in a hot or humid area.
