Popis: | This study aims to compare the microstructure of 17–4 PH stainless steel (SS) manufactured via laser powder bed fusion (L-PBF) and laser powder directed energy deposition (LP-DED) in non-heat treated (NHT) and heat treated conditions. In addition, the room-temperature tensile behavior of heat-treated L-PBF and LP-DED 17–4 PH SS has been investigated and compared with that of the wrought counterpart with the same heat treatment conditions. The results show that the L-PBF specimens have a finer microstructure (ferrite + lath martensite) than the LP-DED ones (massive ferrite + Widmanstatten ferrite) in NHT condition. Electron backscatter diffraction analysis shows that the L-PBF and LP-DED specimens have twin-based substructure lath martensite after heat treatment. Despite the lower tensile strength of the LP-DED specimens compared with the L-PBF ones, the ductility of peak-aged LP-DED specimens was reduced due to the presence of the δ-ferrite phase having a significant plastic deformation incompatibility with the martensite. |
