| 7 | Achieving exceptional wear resistance in a crack-free high-carbon tool steel fabricated by laser powder bed fusion without pre-heating显示文摘Laser powder bed fusion(LPBF)for the fabrication of dense components used for tooling applications,is highly challenging.Residual stresses,which evolve in the additively manufactured part,are inherent to LPBF processing.An additional stress contribution in high-carbon steels arises from the austenite-to-martensite phase transformation,which may eventually lead to cracking or even delamination.As an alternative to pre-heating the base plate,which is not striven by industry,lowering the martensite content which forms in the part,is essential for the fabrication of dense parts by LPBF of high-carbon tool steels which are then adapted to LPBF.In this study,a successful strategy demonstrates the processing of the Fe85Cr4Mo1V1W8C1(wt%)high-carbon steel by LPBF into dense parts(99.8%).The hierarchical microstructure consists of austenitic and martensitic grains separated by elemental segregations in which nanoscopic carbide particles form a network.A high density of microsegregation was observed at the molten pool boundary ultimately forming a superstructure.The LPBF-fabricated steel shows a yield strength,ultimate compressive stress,and total strain of 1210 MPa,3556 MPa,and 27.4%,respectively.The mechanical and wear performance is rated against the industrially employed and highly wear-resistant 1.2379 tool steel taken as the reference.Despite its lower macro-hardness,the LPBF steel(58.6 HRC,0.0061 mm^(3) Nm^(-1))shows a higher wear resistance than the reference steel(62.6 HRC,0.0078 mm^(3) Nm^(-1)).This behavior results from the wear-induced formation of martensite in a microscale thick layer directly at the worn surface,as it was proven via high-energy X-ray diffraction mapping. | Konrad Kosiba Daniel Wolf Matthias Bönisch Kai Neufeld Ruben Hühne Tobias Gustmann Jozef Bednarčík Hongyu Chen Xiaoliang Han Volker Hoffmann Lukas Beyer Uta Kühn Sergio Scudino Lars Giebeler Julia K.Hufenbach | 2023 | Journal of Materials Science & Technology2023，，25： | 0 |
