The invention provides
alloy powder for a mining exploration and collection tool, and a preparation method of the
alloy powder. The
alloy powder comprises the following components of, by
mass percentage, 68-86% of Fe, 13-25% of Cu, 1-7% of Sn, and the balance unavoidable impurities. The preparation method of the alloy powder comprises the following steps that the Fe and Cu in a
raw material are smelted under
inert gas shielding and are heated to scheduled
heating temperature, heat preservation is carried out within a certain period of time, then the Sn in the
raw material is added, stirring iscarried out, and an alloy molten
mass is obtained; the alloy molten
mass is poured, the falling alloy molten mass is crushed by a high-pressure
water flow under the
inert gas shielding, and atomizedpowder is obtained after cooling; and the atomized powder is sequentially subjected to reduction,
drying and pulverizing operation, and the alloy powder is obtained. The categories of
metal elements contained in the alloy powder prepared by the preparation method are less, the proportion is easy to control, the property is stable, components and structures of the alloy powder are more uniform, impurities are less, and the particle
diameter is less, so that the material property of the alloy powder is more stable.
