Copper coated iron powder is a composite alloy consisting of iron as the core and pure copper the coat.
Copper coated iron powder, a new composite alloy consisting of iron as the core and pure copper the coat. We are now capable of producing copper coated iron powder, bronze coated iron power and brass coated iron powder. Such materials can be used in self lubricating bearings, diamond tools and friction materials, as substitute for copper powder, bronze powder and brass powder, thus reducing the production costs considerably.Copper coated iron powder features with complete coating, bright color and excellent oxidation resistance.Applications:1) Copper coated iron powder used for self lubricating bearingsIt has bright color and good flowability, suitable for oilless bearing production. Compared with conventional copper powder, it has better mechanical properties and wear resistance and it is cost effective. 2) Copper coated iron powder used for diamond toolsIt can improve the alloying of powders in sintering process of diamond tools.3) Copper coated iron powder for friction materials It can improve the improve thermal conductivity of friction materials because of the copper coating, and also improve the mechanical properties as improving the alloying of powders in sintering process.
