Abstract

30Cr3Ni2 alloy steel was prepared by laser direct deposition technology. The microstructures and hardness of the alloy steel were studied by metallurgical microscope, scanning electron microscope, energy dispersive spectrometer, X-ray diffraction, microhardness tester and transmission electron microscope. The results show that the microstructure of 30Cr3Ni2 alloy steel was composed of the grain boundary allotriomorphic ferrite/granular bainite (FGBA/BG), which the average hardness was 379HV. The phases of 30Cr3Ni2 alloy steel were mainly composed of α-Fe solid solution, M7C3 and γ-Fe. This study paves the way for the further deepening of the research on alloy steel parts prepared by laser direct deposition.
