Abstract
Titanium nitride (TiN) was coated on to spherical iron powder by the rotary powder bed chemical vapour deposition technique using a reactant gas of the TiCl4-N2-H2 system. The dispersibility of the coated powder was significantly improved by the adsorption of the reactant gas on to the rotating particles during raising the temperature. Polycrystalline TiN film, having a columnar structure of a few micrometres was coated on to the iron powder, typically at a deposition temperature of 1000° C and at a treatment time of 80 min. The TiN-coated iron powder showed an oxidation resistance up to about 650° C.
