Abstract

Abstract PCT No. PCT/JP97/02722 Sec. 371 Date Feb. 8, 1999 Sec. 102(e) Date Feb. 8, 1999 PCT Filed May 5, 1997 PCT Pub. No. WO98/05802 PCT Pub. Date Aug. 5, 1997A hard sintered alloy having not only a wear resistance, a high corrosion resistance and a heat resistance but also a sufficiently high strength and a high tenacity in a wide temperature region from normal temperature to a high temperature is provided. In a sintered alloy comprising a hard phase containing mainly 35-95% of Mo2 NiB2 type complex boride, and a binding phase of hard phase binding Ni group constituting the rest, 0.1-8% of Mn with respect to the whole composition is. added, whereby a hard sintered alloy having a high strength, a high tenacity and a high corrosion resistance is obtained. Furthermore, the addition of W serves to further improve the wear resistance and mechanical characteristics, the addition of Cr and/or V the corrosion resistance and mechanical characteristics, the addition of Cu the corrosion resistance, the addition of Co the oxidation resistance and high temperature characteristics, and the addition of Nb, Zr, Ti, Ta and Hf the mechanical characteristics and corrosion resistance.
