Original Abstract

Thanks to high mechanical properties stable at elevated temperatures, high abrasion resistance, suitable corrosion resistance and biocompatibility, ternary cobalt alloy Co-28Cr-6Mo is a widely used material in the field of aviation industry and medical implants production. Due to the difficult formability and machinability of this alloy in combination with complex shapes of produced parts, investment casting is the mostly employed production process. However, additive manufacturing provides new processing opportunities. E.g. Selective Laser Melting (SLM) technology fusing metallic powders by precisely focused and controlled laser beam enables the production of highly complex parts with high precision. In this contribution, we bring a direct comparison between the microstructures and mechanical properties of Co-28Cr-6Mo alloy prepared by SLM and investment casting. Due to significant differences in microstructure fineness and phase composition, SLM is revealed to increase not only material strength and hardness but concurrently plasticity. As a result of rapid solidification during SLM, very fine cellular microstructure with Mo microsegregation at cell walls is formed without the occurrence of any secondary phases. The distinctive microstructure of the additively manufactured alloy can be expected to be the cause of many other variances in the material behaviour.
