The alloy powder and alloy are not only superb in the tensile strength at room temperature and high temperatures but also superior in the sliding characteristic, they can be further upgraded in the wear resistance and the fretting fatigue resistance by dispersing at least one of nitride particles, boride particles, oxide particles and carbide particles in an amount of from 0.5 to 10% by weight with respect to the whole composite material including the matrix taken as 100% by weight in the matrix, thereby resulting in a heat and wear resistant aluminum alloy-based composite materials. The alloy powder, alloy and composite material are satisfactorily applicable to the component parts of the recent automobile engines which should be light-weight and produce a high output.

A case nitrided aluminum product is produced by contacting an aluminum product with a nitriding agent at a part of a surface thereof at least, and by nitriding the aluminum product at the surface with an ambient gas at a temperature of a melting point of the aluminum product or less while keeping the aforementioned contact. The nitriding agent includes an aluminum powder, and the ambient gas virtually includes a nitrogen gas. The resulting nitriding layer has a depth of 5 micrometers or more, and it exhibits a case hardness of from 250 to 1,200 mHv. Thus, it is possible to form the deep and hard nitriding layer on the aluminum product with ease under the conditions where it has been said to be too difficult to nitride aluminum products. The case nitrided aluminum product can appropriately make sliding parts which require high wear resistance.
摘要:
This invention aims to provide a nitriding method of forming a relatively thick nitride layer on the surface of an aluminum material containing silicon, and an auxiliary agent for nitriding. By using a nitriding auxiliary agent mainly comprising aluminum containing a metal such as lithium or boron, which has a high bonding strength with oxygen, coexists with silicon to form substantially no silicide, or a nitriding auxiliary agent mainly comprising an Al--Mg--Cu alloy or an Mg--Zn--Cu alloy, heat treatment is applied by nitrogen gas with the aluminum material to be nitrided contacted with the nitriding auxiliary agent. Hence, a thick nitride layer can be easily formed even on the surface of an aluminum material containing silicon, and this is most suitable to surface nitride aluminum-silicon alloys, which possess superior castability.
