Oxide-reduction Strategies To Improve Ductility Of Components Manufactured Via Hot Isostatic Pressing (HIP)
Powder metallurgy–hot isostatic pressing (PM-HIP) offers a promising route for producing large, flight-critical landing-gear components in low alloy steels such as 300M. Early development work has shown that although tensile strength targets can be achieved, ductility and toughness can be limited by oxide networks loca...
