Abstract

The spark plasma sintering (SPS) is a type of electric discharge sintering technique used to consolidate metallic/ceramic powders. In this study, spark plasma sintering was used to fabricate 304 stainless steel with TiN addition. The best parameters that influence the sintering process such as sintering temperature, heating time and pressure were investigated. Results show that by varying the amount of TiN, the sintered properties of the composites could be significantly affected. The relative density decreased with the increment of TiN. Microhardness values vary from 270 to 350 HV0.1.
