Abstract

An injection compacting composition suitable for preparing sintered bodies of metal powders, which can provide, by injection compacting, compacts having a high strength from which the binder can be removed without causing deformation, cracking and other defects, thus providing sintered metallic materials having a high density and no defects such as warpage and cracks in high yields, which comprises (1) a metal powder and (2) an organic binder comprising a composite acrylic polymer and an atactic polypropylene, said composite acrylic polymer being a suspension polymerization product prepared by dissolving (a) a polymer selected from the group consisting of an ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer and an ethylene-ethyl acrylate copolymer in (b) an acrylic or methacrylic acid ester monomer or a mixture of an acrylic or methacrylic acid ester monomer and a styrene compound monomer, dispersing the resulting solution in an aqueous medium in the presence of a dispersing agent, and subjecting the resulting dispersion to a suspension polymerization.
