摘要

This paper reviews current observations regarding processing conditions for oxide dispersion-strengthened steels consolidated through additive manufacturing techniques. Variations in ODS steels observed across process parameters include changes in grain size, grain texture, oxide size, density of oxides, porosity, melt pool characteristics, and mechanical properties. These properties were then compared across techniques to understand which techniques and processing conditions lead to the highest strength, ductility, and oxide density. Current literature suggests that a mix of grain types, in the form of either morphology or phase, can significantly increase the strength of printed ODS steels. Meanwhile, the most ductile samples, regardless of consolidation technique or matrix material, were made from feedstock with oxide additions located on the powder surface. Reported grain and oxide sizes were plotted against the ratio of laser power to scan speed, volumetric energy density, and normalized enthalpy. No strong correlation between these values and microstructural features was observed. The plots that were made suggest that a larger data set, more in-depth representative equations, and more defined material properties as a function of specific feedstock used are necessary to determine a value that can be correlated to the printed ODS steel microstructure.
