This study reports the superior tensile properties of laser powder bed fused (L-PBF) Hastelloy X compared to wrought, exhibiting enhanced yield strength and improved ductility. By analyzing response a variety microstructures ranging from fully dendritic solutionized, as-solidified fine inter-dendritic region network was determined be responsible for this superiority. Characterized by high chemi...

The HASTELLOY® and HAYNES® alloys are known for their good weldability, which is defined as the ability of a material to be welded and to perform satisfactorily in the imposed service environment. The service performance of the welded component should be given the utmost importance when determining a suitable weld process or procedure. If proper welding techniques and procedures are followed, h...

The influence of various laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) process parameters on the crystallographic textures and mechanical properties a typical Ni-based solid-solution strengthened alloy, Hastelloy-X, was examined. Samples were classified into four groups based type texture: single crystalline-like microstructure with <100>//build direction (BD) (<100>-SCM), <110>//BD (<110...
