INFLUENCE OF STEAM TREATMENT ON PHYSICOCHEMICAL AND MECHANICAL PROPERTIES OF SINTERED IRON BASE PARTS

Influence of processing parameters of steem treatment including temperature, time, chemical composition of products, density, types of powder and etc. On surface hardness, wear and corrosion resistance and radial compression strength of sintered iron base parts has been analyzed. It is emphatically pointed out that the analysis and evaluation of the effect of staam treatment should be in accordance with conditions of application.
