FIELD: powder metallurgy, namely compositions of powders of stainless steel for warm pressing.
SUBSTANCE: composition for warm pressing contains standard powder of stainless steel sprayed by water. Said powder contains iron, silicon, no less than 0.5 mass %; chrome, 10 - 30 mass %, optionally alloying elements and inevitable impurities, high-temperature lubricant, 0.8 -2.0 mass %. High-density articles are manufactured by pressing such composition at elevated temperature and then sintering it.
EFFECT: improved density of pressed pieces.
