304 Stainless Steel Powder Description

304 Stainless Steel Powder is a finely powdered form of stainless steel alloy 304, which is composed primarily of iron, chromium, and nickel. It is one of the most popular stainless steel. It is less electrically and thermally conductive than carbon steel and is essentially magnetic but less magnetic than steel. It has a higher corrosion resistance than regular steel and is widely used because of the ease with which it is formed into various shapes.

304 Stainless Steel Powder Applications

Metal Injection Molding (MIM): 304 Stainless Steel Powder is widely used in the MIM process to fabricate complex stainless steel components with high precision. Its fine particle size and good flowability enable the production of intricate shapes, making it suitable for industries such as automotive, aerospace, and medical.
Powder Metallurgy (PM): The powder can be utilized in powder metallurgy processes such as compaction and sintering to produce stainless steel parts with excellent mechanical properties. These parts find applications in machinery, tools, and industrial equipment.
Additive Manufacturing (AM): 304 Stainless Steel Powder can be used in additive manufacturing techniques like selective laser melting (SLM) or electron beam melting (EBM) to fabricate stainless steel parts with complex geometries. The resulting parts exhibit high strength, corrosion resistance, and dimensional accuracy.
Stainless Steel Coatings: The powder is employed in thermal spray coatings and cold spray applications to provide a corrosion-resistant and wear-resistant layer on various substrates. It is commonly used in industries such as aerospace, oil and gas, and automotive for protecting critical components.
Decorative Applications: 304 Stainless Steel Powder is used in applications where an aesthetically appealing stainless steel surface is desired. It finds usage in architectural elements, kitchenware, jewelry, and other consumer goods.
Chemical and Petrochemical Industry: The powder is suitable for fabricating components used in chemical processing equipment and petrochemical plants due to its excellent corrosion resistance to a wide range of chemicals and environments.
