It is known that reported properties can vary significantly depending on chemistry, particle size and a host of processing variables that affect final density and phase structure. In this paper, we report the results of a systematic study of the effects of particle size distribution on sintering behavior and final properties of 17-4PH. Various size fractions (90%-10μm, 90%-16μm, 90%-22μm and -32μm) of gas atomized powder were extracted from the same parent batch and used for molding test samples. These were furnaced at a range of temperatures to study the densification process and to determine the combined effects of particle size and sintering temperature on properties of interest. The relative merits of different size distributions are discussed in terms of sintering performance and distortion, tensile properties and surface finish. // 沉澱硬化型不銹鋼17-4PH﹐是現在金屬粉末注射成型(MIM)使用的最流行的合金之一。根據了解，其報告的性質包含：不同的化學成份、粉末顆粒的大小和處理的變異量會影響產品最終的密度和相結構。在本文中，我們報告了17-4PH燒結行為和最終性能對應起始粉末顆粒大小分佈影響的系統研究結果。從相同的一批次氣體霧化粉體中取出各種大小比例（90％-10μm，90％-16μm，的90％- 22μm和 -32μm）的粉末，用於成型試片。這些試片經過燒結在一定溫度範圍內﹐觀察研究其緻密化過程，以確定粉末顆粒的大小對產品性能、燒結溫度的綜合影響。不同粉末粒徑分佈的相對優勢，在燒結性能上﹑變形抵抗﹐以及拉伸性能和表面光潔度等方面進行了討論。(-32μm﹐其中”-“表示所有粉末小於32μm﹔90% = d90, 最大粉末顆粒) INTRODUCTION簡介 Stainless steels continue to account for the majority of alloys used in MIM today and 17-4PH, along with 316L, is one of the most popular grades in use. 17-4PH exhibits an attractive combination of good sintering characteristics, high strength and
