Reduced iron powder, gray or black powder, also known as sponge iron powder and iron powder reduction.
Sponge iron powders grades
●ZTW40.29 (reduced iron powder 40 mesh(425um)) and JHF100.25 (reduced iron powder 100 mesh(150um)) are widely used in welding electrode. Features of the various iron powders we have developed for welding applications include: Narrow size, Consistent chemical and physical properties, Low impurity content. we can also customize the iron powder by buyers requirements.
●FHY80.23 (reduced iron powder 80 mesh(180um)) is specially designed to match the requirements for self lubricating bearings. Its particle size range is chosen to give an optimum pore structure for this application. FHY80.23 can also be added to powder mixes in small quantities to substantially improve green strength.
●FHY100.24 (reduced iron powder 100 mesh(150um)) is a widely used sponge iron powder in the powder metallurgy industry. The green and edge strength of the compacts are very high due to the spongy structure of the powder particles. FHY100.24 has a good compressibility and a low and consistent H2-1oss.
●FHY100.27 (reduced iron powder 100 mesh(150um)) has the best compressibility of all Laiwu sponge iron powder grades. The green strength is also high. It has slightly higher apparent density than FHY100.24 and should be used particularly where high density after single pressing and sintering is desirable.
●We also have reduced iron powder 60 mesh(250um), 200 mesh(75um), 325 mesh(45um), 400 mesh(38um), and 500 mesh(25um).
FHY100 is a high green strength reduced iron powder specifically manufactured for low to medium density P/M applications, resin casting, and rough magnetic paints.
FHY100 is used to manufacture sintered components, soft magnetic components, brazing pastes, magnetic paints, surface coating, magnetic polymers, welding, chemistry and polymer filtrations and many other applications.
FHY100 is one of the most widely used iron powders. It is a very fine iron powder containing particles as small as 325 mesh. This is also the most cost effective product for many applications.

If You Have any reduced iron powder or technical questions, you are welcome to contact our sales account managers.
The reduced iron powder is generally formed by reduction of ferric oxide in hydrogen or carbon monoxide gas flow under high heat conditions, and the main component is loose iron. Due to the fact that the reduced iron powder itself is powder like and its microstructure is very loose, its surface is active. It is often used as high quality reducing agent in chemical production and laboratory operation.
Reducing iron powder is commonly used to produce sponge iron by reducing iron oxide (iron concentrate, rolled steel scale, etc.) or iron ore reduction by solid or gas reducing agent (coke, charcoal, anthracite, water gas, conversion of natural gas, decomposition of ammonia, hydrogen, etc.). after reduction in tunnel kiln , the iron concentrate powder will become sponge iron cake, after crushing and milling of sponge iron cake to be un annealed powder or non annealed powder. and then annealed in belt furnace with Hydrogen atmosphere.
The quality iron powder produced by reduction method is up to the standard, with Fe ≥ 98%, carbon ≤ 0.01%, phosphorus and sulfur less than 0.03%, and hydrogen loss of 0.1-0.2%.
The green and edge strength of the compacts are very high due to the spongy structure of the powder particles. Reuced sponge iron powder can be used for sinter parts such as shock absorbers and self lubricating bearing etc.
Reduced sponge iron powder is also widely used in many industrial fields, because of its sponge iron total iron can reach more than 98% and fewer impurities, irregular shape, high specific surface area, Low level of impurities, very stable chemical composition, low apparent density, high purity, high inductance, so on.
Reduced iron powder, gray or black powder, also known as sponge iron powder and iron powder reduction.
