Influences of atomization process and precursor material on the compaction mechanisms and metallurgical properties of parts developed by HIP
Hot Isostatic pressing process is based on the densification of metals powders to near net shape parts with higher mechanicals properties than forged chemical equivalent. The precursor material can influence the parts properties. Thus the aims of this these is to understand the influence of the powder properties on the HIP parts. The particles characterization and the elements and compound monitoring during the HIP cycle allowed to understand the different oxidations phenomenons and their impact on the mechanical properties of parts. The comparison of differents powders batches with identical particles size repartition or identical chemical composition showed that the chemical composition a…
