Abstract

This work was done using a 316-L commercial feedstock, named Catamold 316-LA, to obtain thin thickness samples. This material has a special grade with high surface definition. The samples with different thicknesses were molded using a high pressure injection molding machine. The green parts underwent catalytic debinding using oxalic acid. After catalytic debinding, thermal debinding and sintering were performed in a single step. The influence of sample thickness on the mechanical properties before and after sintering was determined using Vickers microhardness, density and shrinkage values. After the sintering step, the microstructure of the samples was observed using an optical microscope.
