The residual N found in N<sub>2</sub>-atomized 17-4 powder feedstock is inherited by the additively produced material, and has dramatic effects on phase stability, microstructure, and microstructural evolution. Nitrogen is a known austenite stabilizing element, and the as-built microstructure of AM 17-4 can contain up to 90 pct or more retained austenite, compared to the nearly 100 pct martensite structure of wrought 17-4. Even after homogenization and solutionization heat treatments, AM 17-4 contains 5 to 20 pct retained austenite. In contrast, AM 15-5 and Ar-atomized AM 17-4 contain<5 pct retained austenite in the as-built condition, and this level is further decreased following post-build thermal processing. Computational thermodynamics-based calculations qualitatively describe the observed depression in the martensite start temperature and martensite stability as a function of N-content, but require further refinements to become quantitative. A significant increase in the volume fraction of fine-scale carbide precipitates attributed to the high N-content of AM 17-4 is also hypothesized to give rise to additional activation barriers for the dislocation motion required for martensite nucleation and subsequent growth. An increase in the volume fraction of carbide/nitride precipitates is observed in AM 15-5, although they do not inhibit martensite formation to the extent observed in AM 17-4.</p>","PeriodicalId":49827,"journal":{"name":"Metallurgical and Materials Transactions A-Physical Metallurgy and Materials Science","volume":"51 5","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2020-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10111336/pdf/nihms-1616365.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"9383831","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Since control of the <i>δ</i>-phase growth is essential for reliable prediction of the performance of IN625 components in service, avoiding heat treatments that promote the formation of <i>δ</i>-phase in AM components that are not homogenized is highly recommended.
