Effect of Cr and Si Contents on the Magnetic and Mechanical Properties of Fe-Cr-Si Alloys by MIM Process

Article Preview

Abstract:

In recent years, metal injection molding (MIM) has been adopted as a process of manufacturing a solenoid valve which is a component of an electronic fuel injector, and PB permalloy component has been commercialized. However, Ni that is an element of PB permalloy is expensive material, and it makes difficult to produce the injector component in low cost. To reduce the production cost, we can use Fe-Cr alloys, although there are few studies on Fe-Cr alloys by MIM process. In this study, Fe-Cr-Si alloy specimens were manufactured by MIM process and the magnetic and mechanical properties were investigated. From these results, we found that high performance Fe-Cr-Si alloy can be obtained by setting Si content to 3% and reducing Cr content.
