Abstract: A metal powder for additive manufacturing allows producing an additively manufactured product having few internal defects, little deformation caused by strain and excellent mechanical properties, and an additively manufactured product uses the same. The metal powder for additive manufacturing includes, by mass %, 14.0% to 24.0% of Ni, 2.0% to 8.0% of Mo, 10.5% to 20.0% of Co, 0.01% to 2.00% of Al, and 0.10% to 3.00% of Ti, the balance being Fe and unavoidable impurities. The additively manufactured product includes, by mass %, 14.0% to 24.0% of Ni, 2.0% to 8.0% of Mo, 10.5% to 20.0% of Co, 0.01% to 2.00% of Al, and 0.10% to 3.00% of Ti, the balance being Fe and unavoidable impurities. In a cross section of the additively manufactured product taken parallel to the build direction, there is fewer than 0.1 defect having an equivalent circle diameter of more than 20 ?m per 1 mm2.

Abstract: Provided are a laminate shaped article made of a maraging steel and having excellent toughness, a method for manufacturing the same, and a metal powder for laminate shaping. The laminate shaped article is made of a maraging steel comprising 0.1-5.0 mass % of Ti. When sis is performed on concentration distribution of Ti in a cross section parallel to a lamination direction of the above laminate shaped article, a length of a linear Ti-rich portion having a Ti concentration B of (1.5×A) or more with respect to an average Ti concentration A in the cross section is 15 ?m or less. In addition, the method for manufacturing the laminate shaped article uses a metal powder made of a maraging steel comprising 0.1-5.0 mass % of Ti, and a heat source output is set to 50-330 W and a scanning speed is set to 480-3000 mm/sec during the laminate shaping.

Abstract: An additive layer manufactured hot work tool according to the present disclosure includes a component composition of by mass %, C: 0.3-0.5% to Si: 2.0% or less, Mn: 1.5% or less, P: 0.05% or less, S: 0.05% or less, Cr: 3.0 to 6.0%, 1 or 2 kinds of compounds of Mo and W, a relation between Mo and W being represented by a relational expression of (Mo+1/2W): 0.5 to 3.5%, V: 0.1 to 1.5%, Ni: 0 to 1.0%, Co: 0 to 1.0%, and Nb: 0 to 0.3%, and with Fe and an unavoidable impurity as a remainder, and an area ratio of defects having an area of 1 ?m2 or more is 0.6% or less in a cross section parallel to the amination direction.

Abstract: The present invention provides a steel strip for cutlery, which has a composition containing, in mass %, 0.45 to 0.55% of C, 0.2 to 1.0% of Si, 0.2 to 1.0% of Mn, and 12 to 14% of Cr, and further contains Mo, with the balance made up of Fe and unavoidable impurities, in which Mo is contained in an amount of 2.1 to 2.8%, and the amount of formed M3C deposited by tempering is decreased to improve bending workability.

Abstract: The present invention provides a razor blade steel and method of forming a razor blade from a steel which has a high hardness but is also ductile after being subjected to a heat treatment and bending process. The novel razor blade steel has Molybdenum (Mo) content of between about 1.6% to about 5% in weight percent of composition. The razor blade comprises substantially no tempered carbide, tempered carbide of about 0.1 ?m or smaller, and substantially no cracks in a bent portion. One embodiment of the novel razor blade steel has a composition comprising, in weight percent, about 0.45% to about 0.55% of C, about 0.4% to about 1.0% of Si, about 0.5% to about 1.0% of Mn, and about 12% to about 14% of Cr, and further includes Mo in an amount of about 2.1% to about 2.8%.
