Material Characteristics
The stainless austenitic steel 316L has a good resistant to corrosion. It can be used for temperatures up to 550 °C. Due to its resistance to intergranular corrosion at temperatures below 300 °C, this material is frequently used in chemical, pharmaceutical and food industry applications. The good weldability of 316L leads to an excellent processability in Laser Powder Bed Fusion and a wide applicability.

- The specified material properties were determined at room temperature. They are multidimensionally dependent on many different machine and process parameters. Without further investigation, the material properties do not constitute a sufficient basis for component dimensioning.
- Specific heat treatment processes lead to optimized mechanical-technological properties to meet the component requirements.
