4、ferritic stainless steels are included in thisspecification.1.3 Supplementary requirements are provided for use whenadditional testing or inspection is desired. These shall applyonly when specified individually by the purchaser in the order.1.4 This specification is expressed in both inch-pound unit
5、sand in SI units. Unless the order specifies the applicable “M”specification designation (SI units), however, the material shallbe furnished to inch-pound units.1.5 The values stated in either inch-pound units or SI unitsare to be regarded separately as the standard. Within the text,the SI units are

Materials and Manufactu
40、re5.1 Manufacturing Practice:5.1.1 Compacts shall be manufactured by placing a singlepowder blend into a can, evacuating the can, and sealing it. Thecan material shall be selected to ensure that it has no deleteri-ous effect on the final product. The entire assembly shall beheated and placed under s
41、ufficient pressure for a sufficientperiod of time to ensure that the final consolidated part meetsthe density requirements of 8.1.1.1. One or more parts shall bemachined from a single compact.5.1.2 The powder shall be prealloyed and made by a meltingmethod capable of producing the specified chemical
42、 composi-tion, such as but not limited to, air or vacuum inductionmelting, followed by gas atomization.5.1.3 When powder from more than one heat of the samegrade is used to make a blend, the heats shall be mixedthoroughly to ensure homogeneity.5.1.4 The compact shall be sectioned and the microstruct
43、ureexamined to check for porosity and other internal imperfec-tions. It shall meet the requirements of 8.1.2. The sample shallbe taken from the fill stem or from a location in a part as agreedupon by the manufacturer and purchaser.5.1.5 Unless otherwise specified in the purchase order, themanufactur
44、er shall remove the can material from the surfacesof the consolidated compacts by chemical or mechanicalmethods such as by pickling or machining. This removal shallbe done before or after heat treatment at the option of themanufacturer (See Note 1).NOTE 1Often, it is advantageous to leave the can ma
45、terial in placeuntil after heat treatment or further thermal processing of the consolidatedcompact.6. Chemical Composition6.1 The steel, both as a blend and as a part, shall conform tothe requirements for chemical composition prescribed in Table1. Test Methods, Practices, and Terminology of A 751 sh
46、allapply.6.1.1 A representative sample of each blend of powder shallbe analyzed by the manufacturer to determine the percentage ofelements prescribed in Table 1. The blend shall conform to thechemical composition requirements prescribed in Table 1.6.1.2 When required by the purchaser, the chemical c
47、om-position of a sample from one part from each lot of parts shallbe determined by the manufacturer. The composition of thesample shall conform to the chemical requirements prescribedin Table 1.6.2 Addition of lead, selenium, or other unspecified ele-ments for the purpose of improving the machinabil
48、ity of thecompact shall not be permitted.6.3 The steel shall not contain an unspecified element otherthan nitrogen, for the ordered grade, to the extent that the steelconforms to the requirements of another grade for which thatelement is a specified element having a required minimumcontent.7. Heat T
49、reatment7.1 Except as provided in 7.2, the final heat treatment of allparts shall be in compliance with the requirements of Table 2.After hot isostatic-pressing and prior to final heat treatment, thecompacts are permitted to be annealed, at the option of theproducer, either as a part of the consolidation process or as aseparate operation.7.2 When agreed upon by the purchaser, liquid quenchingmay be applied to the martensitic stainless steels in place of thefurnac
