This paper comprehensively investigated the material characteristics, mechanical properties, and deformation behaviors of LPBF 304L austenitic stainless steel subjected to HIP process with different temperatures. The experimental results showed that increasing HIP temperature led to increased grain size, inclusion size, recrystallization fraction, and dimple size, resulting in homogenized microstructure, reduced yield strength and microhardness, and significantly improved ductility. Furthermore, the study revealed the influence of porosity, inclusion, residual stress, and dislocation density on the fatigue life of HIP-treated samples after surface post-treatment.
Hot isostatic pressing (HIP) is becoming a key strategic technology for post-processing metallic materials fabricated with laser powder bed fusion (LPBF), acting to eliminate the processing-induced pores and improve the mechanical properties. This paper comprehensively investigated material characteristics (porosity, residual stress, microstructures, phase composition, and inclusion), mechanical properties (microhardness, tensile properties, and fatigue properties), and deformation behaviors of LPBF 304L austenitic stainless steel (ASS) subjected to HIP process with different temperatures (965 degrees C, 1165 degrees C, and 1365 degrees C). Experimental results indicated that the grain size, inclusion size, recrystallization fraction, and dimple size increased with increasing HIP temperature, which resulted in homogenized microstructure, reduced yield strength and microhardness, and significantly improved ductility. The fatigue life of HIP-treated samples after surface post-treatment was mainly influenced by porosity, inclusion, residual stress, and dislocation density. The HIP-1165 degrees C samples with low porosity and small-sized inclusions had a higher fatigue life than HIP-965 degrees C and HIP-1365 degrees C samples. In addition, the evolution of crystallographic texture and inclusion composition associated with the HIP temperature were systematically revealed with the aid of orientation distribution function (ODFs) and elemental mappings. This study provides a profound understanding of the rational design of the hybrid process of LPBF and HIP.
