[0006] Commercially available Ti powder or Ti alloy powder is
For metal powder injection molding, there are many coarse particles,
Fluidity at the time of molding is reduced, and the weight of the molded body varies greatly. As a result, the dimensions of the sintered body vary, but the average particle diameter of Fe powder, Ni powder, W powder,
By mixing with at least one fine powder selected from the group consisting of an o-powder and an Al-V alloy, the fluidity during molding and the variation in weight of the compact are improved.

The reason why the ratio of the metal element to be added is set to 1.5 to 15% by weight is that when the amount is less than 1.5% by weight, the improvement in tensile strength is small, and when it exceeds 15% by weight, the elongation at break increases. Therefore, the range of addition of these elements is limited to 1.5 to 15% by weight.

Commonly used polymer materials such as polyethylene, polypropylene, and ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer are random decomposition type resins that are not easily decomposed at the time of binder removal, and are likely to remain as carbon without being volatilely decomposed, Residual carbon and Ti react with each other to form carbides, causing a decrease in the elongation at break of the sintered body. By using as a part, formation of carbides can be suppressed.

(Kneading and granulation of sintering powder and binder) The step of heating and uniformly mixing the metal powder and the binder is a kneading step. Each metal particle is wrapped in the binder. A kneader capable of performing the following processing is selected and kneaded. Also, granulation is a step of pelletizing a composition obtained by kneading a metal powder and a binder,
When the size of the particles is non-uniform, when performing the injection molding in the next step, the supply amount of the composition into the injection molding machine becomes unstable,
Variations in the weight of the molded body occur, resulting in poor dimensional accuracy of the final product. Therefore, it is necessary to make the grains as uniform as possible.

(Degreasing) The step of removing the binder from the molded article is the degreasing step.

However, the heat degreasing apparatus has the advantage of being simpler than other methods and capable of treating a large amount. In addition, heat degreasing,
In order to prevent oxidation of the metal powder, it is preferable to carry out in a non-oxidizing atmosphere.

As a furnace used for sintering, a carbon heater or container is generally used. At the time of sintering, carbon carbide from the heater or container causes Ti carbide to be generated in the sintered body, Elongation at break may decrease. In order to prevent such carbon contamination, the molded body is surrounded by the surrounding body. As the material of the surrounding body, it is necessary to select a metal or ceramic that does not contaminate the sintered body of Ti.

Comparative Example 4 Mixed powder obtained by adding 5.0% by weight of Fe powder having an average particle size of 5 μm to 95.0% of pure Ti powder having an average particle size of 45 μm or less and an oxygen content of 0.13% by weight. A sample was prepared in the same manner as in Example 1 by adding 38% by volume of an organic binder containing 30% by volume of a polypropylene resin to the entire binder as a binder, and evaluated in the same manner as in Example 1. The test results are shown in Table 1. Since no depolymerized binder was used, the sintered body had a large carbon content and a low elongation at break.

Comparative Example 5 A mixed powder obtained by adding 5.0 wt% of an Fe powder having an average particle size of 5 μm to 95.0% of pure Ti powder having an average particle size of 45 μm or less and an oxygen content of 0.13 wt%. A sample was prepared and evaluated in the same manner as in Example 1 except that the debindered molded body was not surrounded by a zirconia surrounding body. The test results are shown in Table 1. Since the surroundings were not enclosed, the sintered body had a large carbon content,
The breaking elongation was also low.
