Abstract

In this study, the evolution of solidification texture during LPBF of Ti-free grade 300 maraging steel, and its effect on texture development during subsequent post-fabrication heat treatments was characterized using Electron Backscatter Diffraction (EBSD). It was found that in the as-fabricated state, no texture was observed in the room temperature martensitic phase. However, the reconstructed parent austenite phase displayed a Cube texture with a minor fraction of Rotated Goss texture. During subsequent aging treatments involving two different routes, namely direct aging of the as-fabricated samples, and conventional solution treatment + aging of the as-fabricated samples, significant changes in the texture components of parent austenite were observed, whereas no changes in texture were observed in the room temperature martensitic phase. During direct aging, it was found that with an increase in the aging temperature up to 520 °C, the texture components of the parent austenite changed from Cube/Rotated Goss to Brass, whereas during the conventional solution treatment and aging cycle, interestingly a change in texture component to rotated copper was observed. The transitions in texture components have been discussed using the concepts of recrystallization and twinning in austenite during annealing and/or aging, and strain energy release maximization (SERM) theory. Furthermore, the importance of these preferred orientations on the mechanical properties was quantified using transformation potential diagrams.
