An iron-based powder composition is provided that is greatly flowable and compactible and less dependent on temperature with respect to flowability and compactibility at room temperature or during warming. The iron-based powder composition includes an iron-based powder, a lubricant melted and fixed to the iron-based powder, an alloying powder bonded to the iron-based powder with the aid of the lubricant, and a free lubricant. One or more constituent members are coated with an organosiloxane layer in a coating ratio of greater than about 80%. The organosiloxane has phenyl groups as a functional group. The lubricant melted and fixed to the iron-based powder is a composite melt composed of a calcium soap and a lithium soap, or a composite melt composed of a calcium soap and an amide lubricant. The free lubricant is a mixed powder composed of an amide lubricant and a methyl polymethacrylate powder, or a lithium soap powder. A process for producing the iron-based powder composition is also provided.
