Abstract

A new proprietary lubricant, High Green Strength 2.0 (HGS 2.0), is being tested to determine its properties when used in the powdered metal process. This research is presenting the properties of HGS 2.0 lubricant as well as green and sintered parts of FC-0208, 316 stainless steel (SS-316), and 304 stainless steel (SS-304) blended with this new lubricant. The FC-0208 samples were pressed to densities of 6.8g/cc, 7.0g/cc, and 7.2g/cc. The stainless-steel samples were pressed to densities of 6.3g/cc. 6.4g/cc, 6.5g/cc, and 6.6g/cc. Initial testing shows that HGS 2.0 improves the green strength of FC-0208 parts by at least 25% across the three densities tested. This increase in green strength comes with minimal negative changes in other properties such as apparent hardness and transverse rupture strength. In fact, when using HGS 2.0, sintered dimensional change decreased, ejection force decreased, and flow rate improved in some compositions.
