This study focuses on 316L stainless steel fabricated by selective laser melting (SLM) in the context of nuclear application, and compares with a cold-rolled solution annealed 316L sample. The effect of heat treatment (HT) and hot isostatic pressing (HIP) on the microstructure and mechanical properties is discussed. | Microstructure and mechanical properties relationship of additively manufactured 316L stainless steel by selective laser melting EPJ Nuclear Sci.

Additive manufacturing AM is rapidly expanding in many industrial applications because of the versatile possibilities of fast and complex fabrication of added value products. This manufacturing process would significantly reduce manufacturing time and development cost for nuclear components. However the process leads to materials with complex microstructures and their structural stability for nuclear application is still uncertain. This study focuses on 316L stainless steel fabricated by selective laser melting SLM in the context of nuclear application and compares with a cold-rolled solution annealed 316L sample. The effect of heat treatment HT and hot isostatic pressing HIP on the microstructure and mechanical properties is discussed. It was found that after HT the material microstructure .
