| Abstract |
| Alloy based materials are well known for their excellent mechanical, structural and
electrochemical properties. The present paper reports the effect of sintering temperature
on structural, mechanical and electrochemical behaviour of iron-nickel alloys. Iron-nickel
alloys with 30 wt% nickel were prepared by powder metallurgy (P/M) route with a
compaction load of 12 ton. The compact specimens were sintered at three different
temperatures 1000o, 1200o and 1250oC for 1 h. Iron-nickel alloy formation was confirmed
by X-ray diffraction studies. Hardness, wear and microstructural analysis were done with
the help of Rockwell hardness tester, pin on disk wear testing machine and scanning
electron microscope/ energy dispersive spectroscopy, respectively. Samples sintered at
1200oC showed better density, hardness, wear resistance and corrosion resistance than
those of the other sintered specimens. In the present investigation, an effort was made
to develop iron-nickel alloy for various advanced industrial applications. |
