2、the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This specification covers parts produced from iron-phosphorus powder metallurgy mate
3、rials. These parts are used inmagnetic applications requiring higher permeability and electrical resistivity and lower coercive field strength than attainableroutinely from parts produced from iron powder.1.2 Two powder types are covered; Type I containing nominally 0.45 % 0.45 wt.% phosphorus, and
4、Type II containingnominally 0.8 % 0.8 wt.% phosphorus.1.3 This specification deals with P/M powder metallurgy parts in the sintered or annealed condition. Should the sintered partsbe subjected to any secondary operation that causes mechanical strain, such as machining or sizing, they should be resin
5、tered orannealed.1.4 The values stated in inch-poundSI units are to be regarded as standard. The values given in parentheses are mathematicalconversions to SI units that customary (cgs-emu and inch-pound) units, which are provided for information only and are notconsidered standard.1.5 This standard

Sintered Density Req
18、uirements5.1 Magnetic and residual induction of P/M powder metallurgy parts strongly depend on density. The density of P/M powdermetallurgy parts is determined by the compressibility of the powder, the compacting pressure, and sintering practice (temperature,time, and atmosphere).5.2 Parts produced
19、in conformance with this specification shall have a minimum sintered density of 6.8 g/cmMg/m3 (6800kg/m3) in the critical section of the part. The critical section shall be defined by agreement between the user and the producer.5.3 Sintered density shall be determined in accordance with Test Method
20、B328B962.6. Magnetic Property Requirements6.1 Due to the nature of P/M powder metallurgy parts production, magnetic testing of each lot is not required by thisspecification. However,Nevertheless, it is strongly recommended that the user require the producer to conduct periodic magneticevaluations an
21、d to certify the results obtained. Such magnetic property evaluations shall be conducted in the following manner.6.2 When requested, each lot of parts should be sintered with at least one and preferably three ring test specimens which complywith the geometric requirements listed in Practice A34/A34M
22、. The ring specimen(s) shall be produced from the same mixed lotof powder used to produce the parts.6.3 The dc magnetic properties shall be determined in accordance with Test Methods A596/A596M or A773/A773M.6.4 For the purpose of this specification, only the coercive field strength determined from
23、a maximum applied magnetic fieldstrength of 15 Oe (1200 A/m)1200 A/m (15 Oe) needs to be determined. Other magnetic properties may be specified by mutualagreement between the user and the producer.6.5 Coercive Field Strength RequirementsThree grades, defined by coercive field strength, are stipulate
24、d by this specificationand are listed in Table 2. The coercive field strength requirements for Type I are based on an interlaboratory study conducted byASTM Committee B09.

To determine the susceptibility of th
37、e parts to aging, thetest ring(s) should be heated in air for either 100 h at 150C150 C or 600 h at 100C100 C and the coercive field strengthremeasured. A change in coercive field strength of 10 % or more of the original value is evidence that aging has occurred.6.7 Since magnetic properties are str

40、ree upon a representative number of specimens for testing.9. Rejection and Rehearing9.1 Parts that fail to conform to the requirements of this specification may be rejected. Rejection should be reported to theproducer or supplier promptly and in writing. In case of dissatisfaction with the results o
41、f the test, the producer or supplier maymake claim for a rehearing.9.2 The disposition of rejected parts shall be subject to agreement between the user and the producer.10.
