摘要

This study presents a new isotropic model capable of capturing the sinteringSintering kinetics of a 316L316L stainless steelStainless steel binder jettingBinder Jetting part for a wide range of temperaturesTemperature (1250–1390 °C). The model accounts for the two major sintering mechanismsSintering mechanisms, surface and volume diffusionDiffusion. A new sigmoidal function is introduced to account for the transitions between the different sintering mechanismsSintering mechanisms. The model was able to predict the sintered relative densityRelative density with a maximum error of 2.40% for sintering temperaturesSintering temperature equal to or above 1250 °C. Below 1250 °C, the simulated final densityDensity begins to deviate from experimental results more significantly. The model produces an error of 26.94% when the isothermal sintering temperatureSintering temperature is 1100 °C. This shows that a third sinteringSintering regime is required to accurately predict the sinteringSintering of 316L316L BJ parts below 1250 °C.
