Abstract Scope |
Laser Powder Bed Fusion (L-PBF) C103 is in development for propulsion applications that operate under extreme environments. The standard post-process heat treatment has called for vacuum stress relief, however, depending on the application or certification requirements hot isostatic press may be required. Although C103 density responds well to HIP the associated grain growth results in a reduction in mechanical properties. An investigation was conducted to look at the potential benefit of leveraging HIP followed by rapid cooling to minimize grain growth. A series of heat treatment schedules varying temperature and pressure were conducted followed by microstructural and mechanical characterization. |
