The effects of powder characteristics (powder shape, size and type) and processing conditions (laser power and scanning speed) on the mechanical properties and microstructures of laser powder bed fusion (L-PBF) 17-4 PH stainless steel were studied using four types of powders. The % theoretical density, ultimate tensile strength, hardness of L-PBF parts are sensitive to energy density and starting powder shape, size and type. The density and mechanical properties of both water and gas-atomized powders increased with increased energy density. The gas-atomized (D-50 = 13 mu m) powders which are spherical in shape and water-atomized (D-50 = 17 mu m) powders of high tap density produced low-porosity and high-density (similar to 97% density) L-PBF parts at low energy densities of 64 and 80 J/mm(3). The increase in energy density to 104 J/mm(3) resulted in high dense (97 +/- 0.5%) water- and gas-atomized powders L-PBF parts. However, even at a high % theoretical density (97 +/- 1%), the properties of L-PBF parts varied over a relatively large range (UTS: 500-1100 MPa; hardness: 25-39 HRC; elongation: 10-25%). This large variation in mechanical properties could be attributed the martensite and austenite phase as well as grain size in the L-PBF parts. Furthermore, the martensite and austenite phase content and of the L-PBF parts were also sensitive to the energy density and starting powder type. (C) 2018 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
