Description

Stainless steel material for 3D printing, and preparation method and application thereof
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of 3D printing, and particularly relates to a stainless steel material for 3D printing, a preparation method of the stainless steel material, and application of the stainless steel material in a 3D printing mold.
Background
The 3D printing technology is an advanced manufacturing technology developed in recent years, and is a novel manufacturing process for forming a three-dimensional entity of a part by continuously adding materials and stacking layer by layer on the basis of a three-dimensional model of the part, and at present, a mode of producing a mold by adopting the 3D printing technology has made good progress. The 3D printing mold is widely applied to the fields of die casting and injection molding, for example, a mold insert with a conformal cooling channel can effectively shorten the injection molding period of the injection mold; the die-casting die with the conformal cooling channel can reduce the spraying times of the condensing agent on the surface of the die in the die-casting process, thereby prolonging the service life of the die and maintaining the quality of a casting.
Currently, the existing 3D printing die steel materials are 1.2709, CX, and the like, wherein the thermal conductivity of the CX material at normal temperature is 18W/(m.k), and the thermal conductivity of 1.2709 at normal temperature is 21W/(m.k). Under high temperature operational environment such as die-casting, because current 3D printing material's thermal conductivity is lower than traditional material, even there is cooling waterway, but cooling rate is unsatisfactory, leads to the mould that this kind of 3D printing material made very easily to take place fracture and damage in the use, seriously influences the life of mould.
A 3D printing stainless steel material and a preparation method and application thereof as disclosed in chinese patent application No. CN201910916634.4 (publication No. CN 110629131A) comprises 10.0-13.0wt% of chromium, 10.0-13.0wt% of nickel, 0.5-2.5wt% of molybdenum, 1.5-2.0wt% of aluminum, 0.5-2.0wt% of titanium, 0-1.0wt% of cobalt, 0-1.0wt% of copper, 0-1.0wt% of silicon, 0-1.0wt% of manganese, 0-0.5wt% of niobium, 0-0.01wt% of boron, 0-0.08wt% of carbon, and the balance of iron element, and unavoidable trace impurities in steel; the raw material mixture is prepared into 3D printing stainless steel metal powder by adopting a vacuum melting gas atomization method, because the heat conduction of a metal material mainly depends on the thermal motion of free electrons, after other elements are added into pure metal to form alloy, the embedding of other elements can seriously obstruct the motion of the free electrons, so that the heat conductivity is greatly reduced, and not only is the cooling speed slow when the 3D printing stainless steel metal powder is used for preparing a 3D printing mold, so that the injection molding cycle of the mold is long, the production efficiency of the 3D printing mold is low, but also the mold prepared from the 3D printing stainless steel metal powder is very easy to crack and damage under a high-temperature working environment, and the high-temperature working requirement of the mold can not be met; moreover, the 3D printing stainless steel material has insufficient wear resistance, which also affects the service life of the mold made of the 3D printing stainless steel material; in addition, the 3D printing stainless steel metal powder preparation method is complex, multiple in large-scale production procedures and low in production efficiency.
