The present invention relates to a method for producing a porous sintered body of Al or Al alloy, and more specifically, a eutectic reaction is carried out between a base powder consisting essentially of Al and the base powder at a temperature below the melting point of the base powder. A mixed powder that is formed and melted and mixed with a metal powder whose eutectic temperature is below the base powder or an Al alloy powder that partially forms in a liquid phase below the melting point of the base powder is molded into the desired shape without pressure. The present invention relates to a method of manufacturing a porous sintered body having excellent mechanical strength by applying pressure during sintering. Traditionally, porous sintered bodies, especially copper sintered bodies, have been used as filters for liquids, etc., but recently, attention has been focused on the countless communicating pores, and their use as sound absorbing materials has also been developed. In other words, in a porous sintered body, pores are formed between adjacent powder particles, and since these pores are continuously connected and infinitely curved, when a sound wave passes through them, most of the energy is absorbed. The sound is lost and absorbed. In addition, copper powder is expensive and porous sintered bodies are very heavy, so porous sintered bodies made of Al powder or its alloy powder are desired. It is said to be extremely difficult to manufacture from Al powder, etc.). The reason for this is that the surface of Al powder, etc. is covered with a hard-to-reducible oxide film of Al 2 O 3 , so if pressure is not applied during molding, the internal Al and Al alloys will come into contact during sintering. without doing,
This is because the sintering reaction does not proceed. From this point of view, when using Al powder or the like, it is difficult to produce a porous sintered body having a porosity of 35% or more and having communicating pores suitable for filters, sound absorbing materials, and the like. For this reason, the present inventors researched methods for producing porous sintered bodies such as Al powder with high porosity, and first
A low melting point Al alloy powder having a melting point lower than that of the base powder is mixed with a base powder made of Al powder, etc., this mixed powder is molded without pressure, and the molded body is directly made of low melting point Al alloy powder. We proposed a method for manufacturing porous sintered bodies by sintering at temperatures above the melting point of alloy powder. Since this method does not apply pressure during molding and sintering, it is possible to maintain a porosity of 30% or more, and during molding.
Even if the oxide film of Al powder etc. cannot be destroyed mechanically, it can be locally destroyed during sintering, and the low melting point Al
This method is suitable for producing a sintered body with high porosity, which can be bonded by a liquid phase from the alloy. However, in this method, the oxide film is destroyed by taking advantage of the difference in the degree of expansion between the surface oxide film and the internal Al due to the temperature rise during sintering, and the degree of destruction is small. When the liquid phase of the low-melting-point Al alloy powder acts on the material, this oxide film becomes an obstacle, and the sinterability does not improve, making it impossible to obtain large mechanical strength. From this point, the present invention was completed to solve the above-mentioned drawbacks. Specifically, the present invention proposes that when a suitable range of pressure is applied to a base powder made of Al powder etc. during sintering, This sintering method takes advantage of the fact that the Al base inside the base powder is deformed due to the creep phenomenon, and this deformation greatly destroys the oxide film on the surface, improving sinterability. The method of the present invention will be explained in detail below. First, the base powder is Al powder, etc., that is, it is essentially
Either or both of Al powder consisting of Al and Al alloy powder containing Al. Mix the following powders with this base powder. (1) Al alloy powder with a composition that at least partially forms a liquid phase below the melting point of the base powder. (2) The eutectic temperature at which a eutectic reaction occurs with the Al base in the base powder and melts. A metal powder having a melting point lower than that of the base powder or an alloy powder containing the metal. That is, the base powder is mixed with the powders (1) or (2) or the powders (1) and (2). In this mixing, the composition and amount of the added powder are determined in relation to the composition, amount, and melting point of the base powder. For example, when using an Al powder consisting essentially of Al or an Al-Cu alloy powder containing Cu as the base powder, the powder (1) is
Al alloy powder having a composition that partially forms a liquid phase below the base melting point of the powder or Al-Cu powder is added and blended. For example, as this Al alloy powder, Al-
When blending Cu alloy powder, as shown in Figure 1.
Determined from the Al-Cu system phase diagram. In other words, when the base powder consists essentially of Al, its melting point is 660
Since the temperature is 660°C or lower, an Al-Cu alloy powder that partially forms a liquid phase is blended. When this alloy powder is determined from Figure 1, it is found that Al containing about 45% or more of Cu
-Cu alloy powder, for example, 70% Cu-30
The melting point of %Al powder is higher than the base powder melting point, but 591
At temperatures above 0.degree. C., a liquid phase L is generated in a portion, as shown in η 1 +L, and even at temperatures above 626° C., a liquid phase L is stably present in some portions, as shown in ε 2 +L. In addition, even for Al-Cu alloy powder containing 45% or less of Cu, θ+L
Alternatively, liquid phase L is partially generated, such as K+L. Therefore, when Al--Cu alloy powder having this composition is mixed and sintered at, for example, 660 to 591°C or 660 to 548°C, a liquid phase can be stably generated partially. Note that when adding Al-Cu alloy powder containing 45% or less of Cu, this powder has a melting point lower than the base powder made of Al, so it is necessary to adjust the mixing ratio and maintain the porosity within an appropriate range. Also, when adding powder (2) instead of powder (1) or together with powder (1), the base powder
Taking into account the eutectic reaction with the Al base, the amount of metal powder or alloy powder to be added is determined and added in relation to the eutectic composition and eutectic temperature shown in Table 1, for example. When powder (2) is added in this way, as is clear from Table 1, when the base powder consists essentially of Al, various eutectic alloys are formed below its melting point, and this alloy is sintered. Sometimes exists as a stable liquid phase.

[Table] Next, the mixed powder is molded into the desired shape without applying pressure, but during sintering, appropriate pressure is applied to each base powder and sintered in a vacuum or non-oxidizing atmosphere. The sintering temperature at this time is lower than the melting point of the base powder, but when only the powder (1) is added, it is above the temperature at which a liquid phase forms in a part of the Al alloy powder.
When the powder (2) is added, the temperature is higher than the temperature at which it melts due to a eutectic reaction with the Al base of the base powder, that is, the eutectic temperature. Further, the pressurizing force during sintering is such that the base powder is deformed due to the creep phenomenon at the sintering temperature, and the pressurizing force is essentially determined in relation to the sintering temperature. However, since the upper limit of the sintering temperature is the melting point of the base powder, industrially it is often sintered at around 600℃, and the ultimate strength of the base powder at a sintering temperature of 600℃ is 600g/cm 2 ~ 70g. /cm 2 , the pressure is applied to each base powder particle to the extent that a pressure of 60 g/cm 2 or more is applied, particularly about 100 to 1000 Kg/cm 2 . In other words, the relationship between the ultimate strength of the base powder and the strain rate in the creep phenomenon of base powder made of Al or its alloy is as shown in Figure 2. The ultimate strength of the base powder increases as the sintering temperature increases, whereas the ultimate strength of the base powder decreases as the sintering temperature increases. Therefore, the sintering time was set to 30 minutes, and the sintering temperature was
When the temperature is 600℃, the ultimate strength of the base powder is 60~
The pressure is approximately 70 g/cm 2 , and if a pressure greater than this is applied, the base powder will be significantly deformed due to creep. However, if the applied pressure is too large, the deformation will be large and the sinterability will improve, but the porosity will decrease.
Does not exhibit good sound absorption properties. For this reason, the upper limit of the pressing force is preferably about 1000 g/cm 2 . In addition, when performing pressureless molding and pressure sintering as described above, it is usually preferable to use a container or plate that does not react with the mixed powder, such as a graphite container or a graphite plate. That is, the mixed powder is spread in a graphite container, molded into a desired shape, and during sintering, a weight is placed on the mixed powder in the graphite container and pressurized. When molded and sintered in this way, nearly countless cracks occur in the oxide film on each base powder, and sintering progresses, resulting in a porous sintered body with high porosity and excellent mechanical strength. . Therefore, in order to explain the features of the method of the present invention as described above, the sintering mechanism will be explained in more detail as follows. Generally, the surface of base powder such as Al powder is covered with a hard oxide film, but powders (1) and (2) partially melt below the melting point of the base powder without applying pressure during molding. This liquid phase acts on the areas where the internal Al base is exposed through cracks in the oxide film that are generated due to the difference in coefficient of thermal expansion. However, the cracks caused by this difference in coefficient of thermal expansion are small, and if there is even a small amount of oxygen in the sintering atmosphere, this oxygen will act on the fractured part, and the exposed internal part will be immediately oxidized very instantaneously. , the exposed part is sealed off,
This will hinder the progress of sintering. In contrast, in the method of the present invention, since sintering is carried out under pressure, the oxide film on the surface of the base powder not only cracks due to the difference in static expansion coefficients, but also The thickness varies from 100 to 500 due to elongation and deformation due to the creep phenomenon of the internal Al base.
The oxide film having a thickness of approximately Å is dynamically destroyed, and this dynamic destruction generates large cracks and greatly improves sinterability. For example, base powder 1 (substantially made of Al) with an average particle size of about 175μ is added to additive powder 2 (made of Ni, which melts in a eutectic composition with Al in the base powder, with an average particle size of about 74μ). ) to mix. When the mixture is molded without pressure, the surface of the base powder 1 is covered with an oxide film 3 as shown in FIG. 3, and the small diameter additive powder 2 is interposed between the base powder 1 having this structure. If the oxide film 3 is sintered in that state after molding, it will be destroyed due to the difference in expansion coefficient.
Through this part, the additive powder 2 acts and the Al-Ni
It melts with a eutectic composition of , but the fractured portion is extremely small. On the other hand, when pressure is applied during sintering, the inside of the base powder 1 deforms due to the creep phenomenon as shown in FIG. 4, and this deformation dynamically destroys the oxide film 3, so that the destroyed part becomes extremely large, promoting the diffusion of additive powder 2, and Al-Ni
Good sintering due to eutectic reaction. When adding the powder (2) as the additive powder, the powder is a powder of the metals shown in Table 1 or a powder of an alloy containing these metals.
When adding Cu powder or Cu alloy powder, Cr, Ti, Sb, Co, Se, Sn, Zn,
Deterioration of corrosion resistance can be prevented by adding components such as Mn. In other words, Ni is added as the second powder to the base powder.
When powder and Cu powder are mixed, the temperature is 548℃ during sintering.
Cu and Al undergo a eutectic reaction and melt, and then
Ni and Al melt at a temperature of 640℃ to form β+L and α+L.
A liquid phase L is generated from the eutectic system. In this case, Al
-The eutectic structure of Ni remains only in the joints of the base powder, but the Cu, which is higher than the eutectic structure of Al-Cu, enters along the grain boundaries of the Al base of the base powder and precipitates as Cu or intermetallic compounds. , corrosion progresses along grain boundaries and corrosion resistance deteriorates. However, when one or more of Cr, Ti, Sb, Co, Se, Sn, Zn, or Mn is added as a corrosion resistance improving component, these components become nuclei at the grain boundaries of the Al base of the base powder. It precipitates and absorbs Cu on its surface,
As a result, the Cu precipitated along the grain boundaries is divided and corrosion does not progress. Furthermore, the reason why the atmosphere is maintained in a vacuum or non-oxidizing state as described above during sintering is to maintain cracks in the oxide film that occur due to differences in expansion coefficients and creep phenomena. In addition, the pressing force applied to each powder particle of the base powder during sintering must be 60 g/cm 2 or more when applying the pressing force for about 30 minutes, as shown in Figure 2.
This is because at a strain rate of 30 minutes at ℃, the ultimate strength is about 60 g/cm 2 , and below this, no deformation occurs due to the creep phenomenon. Next, examples will be described. Example 1 First, 2 parts by weight of Ni powder with an average particle size of 200 mesh and 1 wt% of Cu powder with the same particle size were mixed with 79 wt% of a base powder consisting essentially of Al with an average particle size of 50 mesh. This mixed powder was spread and filled into a ceramic container without applying pressure, and a plate-shaped body was molded while it was still housed in the container. Next, the material was sintered for 30 minutes in an H2 gas atmosphere whose dew point was adjusted to around -40° C. while it was kept in this container.
At this time, a weight is placed on top of the mixed powder in the container, and the weight of this weight is changed to change the pressing force per each particle of the base powder from 0 to 7 x 10 g/cm 2 ,
After pressure sintering, the sintered bodies were slowly cooled in the atmosphere, and the porosity and mechanical properties (tensile strength) of each sintered body were determined as shown in Table 2.

[Table] From Table 2, when the pressing force during sintering was 70 g/cm 2 , there was sufficient elongation, high tensile strength, and deformation due to creep of the base powder was observed. On the contrary,
When the applied force is lower than 60 g/cm 2 , almost no deformation due to creep is observed, and the mechanical properties are drastically reduced, and when the applied force is 0, 2, and 5 g/cm 2 , the tensile strength is significantly reduced. was. In addition, when the pressing force was further increased from 70 g/cm 2 , the mechanical properties improved to some extent, but at 1000 g/cm 2
It was found that when it exceeds g/cm 2 , the water permeability decreases, the number of communicating pores decreases, and the porosity significantly decreases to 30% or less. Example 2 First, 87 wt% of a base powder consisting essentially of Al with an average particle size of 50 mesh is blended with 8 wt% of 50% Cu-50% Al alloy powder (average particle size of 200 mesh), and Cr powder (average Particle size 200 mesh or less) 1wt
% and mixed them. These mixed powders were scattered and filled into a graphite container and shaped into a plate. Next, place a weight on top of the mixed powder in this container,
This weight gives a weight of 0.51 to each particle of base flour.
A pressure of ×10 3 g/cm 2 was applied, and the temperature was 645°C ± 3°C in an H 2 gas atmosphere whose dew point was adjusted to around -40°C.
Sintering was performed under the conditions of ×30 minutes. When we tested the properties of this porous sintered body, the porosity was approximately 38%, and the results of the water flow test were good.
The tensile strength was 3.1Kg/mm 2 , which was extremely good. For comparison, a mixed powder blended as described above was molded into a plate shape and sintered as it was without applying pressure, and this was designated as Comparative Example 1. Furthermore, 84 wt% of base powder (average particle size: 50 mesh) consisting essentially of Al and 12 wt% of 50% Al-50% Cu alloy powder (average particle size: 200 mesh) were mixed, and this was applied under the same pressure as above. sintered by adding
This was designated as Comparative Example 2. Comparative Example 2 is according to the present invention, and exhibited water permeability and mechanical strength equivalent to those according to the present invention. Next, regarding these three types of porous sintered bodies,
As shown in JIS Z-2371, a salt spray test was conducted using 5wt% salt water. In particular, in this test, the corrosion resistance and weather resistance were determined because the communicating pores of each porous body were easily cracked due to intergranular corrosion. We compared the time it took to put them away. As a result, in Comparative Example 2, the time was about 20 hours, partly because Cu grain boundary precipitation was continuous. On the other hand, Comparative Example 1 also involved pressureless sintering.
Although the degree of Cu precipitation is small and is high at about 120 hours, the above-mentioned one according to the present invention improved by about 150 hours or more. Example 3 60% Cu-40% Al alloy powder (average particle size 150 mesh) 7wt% and Ni powder (average particle size 200 mesh) 5wt% to 91wt% base powder consisting essentially of Al powder with average particle size 80 mesh. %, and these mixed powders were scattered and filled into a graphite container without applying pressure, and molded into a plate. While the powder was being scattered in this container, a weight was placed on top of the mixed powder to apply pressure of 60 g/cm 2 to each powder particle of the base powder, and the mixture was heated at a dew point of -45°C and a temperature of 645°C for 30 minutes. Sintering was performed. This porous sintered body had a porosity of 42% and a tensile strength of 1.5 Kg/mm 2 .
