Effects of sintering atmosphere on microstructure and mechanical property of sintered powder metallurgy 316L stainless steel
Graphical abstract Display Omitted
Highlights The 316L samples sintered in N2 atmosphere exhibit higher strength and hardness. Sintering in N2 atmosphere is acceptable in terms of pore geometry and porosity ratio. The mechanical properties of N2 atmosphere are better than the Ar atmosphere. Decreasing porosity of P/M materials improves the mechanical properties.
Abstract In this study, nitrogen and argon were used as the sintering atmosphere for AISI 316L stainless steel compacts. The effects of sintering atmosphere on sintered density, grain morphology and mechanical properties were investigated. The mechanical and microstructural characteristics of the sintered compacts were evaluated using optical microscopy, and scanning electron microscope. Tensile strength and hardness of the compacts sintered in nitrogen atmosphere are 290MPa and 355.2HV0.1, respectively. When argon was used as the sintering atmosphere, the tensile strength and hardness of the 316L stainless steel sintered compacts have become 226MPa and 181.8HV0.1 respectively. The results of this study indicate that the compacts sintered in nitrogen atmosphere exhibits higher strength and hardness than that of the steels sintered in argon atmosphere.
