Spark plasma sintering of 13Ni-400 maraging steel: Enhancement of mechanical properties through surface modification
Source abstract
Abstract
The present work aimed to reduce the amount of gas-atomized spherical powder, cost reduction, and reduction in the use of inert gas (N 2 , Ar) used during the selective laser melting process but to have similar properties and functionalities through the spark plasma sintering (SPS) process. In this work, 13Ni-400 maraging steel disks were fabricated using Spark Plasma Sintering (SPS) using optimized process parameters. The SPS samples are then subjected to surface melting and layered deposition processes. A detailed microstructural characterization and mechanical testing (hardness and compression properties) were carried out on these samples. The results indicated that the surface melted specimen exhibited the best combination of mechanical properties and microstructure, with a highly refined and uniform microstructure. This was attributed to the unique processing conditions employed during surface melting allowing the material to rapidly solidify. The surface melted samples show the highest yield strength among the three conditions (SPS, SPS + surface melting, and SPS + layer deposition). However, both the surface melting and layer deposited samples have similar ultimate compressive strength. Overall, the study offers a promising approach for producing defect-free parts with maximum densification and improved mechanical properties for newly developed 13Ni-400 maraging steel.
