This study aims to assess the potential of Laser Additive Manufacturing (LAM) for the elaboration of Ferritic/Martensitic ODS steels. These materials are usually manufactured by mechanical alloying of powders followed by hot consolidation in a solid state. Two Fe-14Cr-1W ODS powders are considered for this study. The first powder was obtained by mechanical alloying, and the second was through soft mixing of an atomized Fe-14Cr steel powder with yttria nanoparticles. They are representative of the different types of powders that can be used for LAM. The results obtained with the Laser Powder Bed Fusion (LPBF) process are compared to a non-ODS powder and to a conventional ODS material obtained by Hot Isostatic Pressing (HIP). The microstructural and mechanical characterizations show that it is possible to obtain nano-oxides in the material, but their density remains low compared to HIP ODS steels, regardless of the initial powders considered. The ODS obtained by LAM have mechanical properties which remain modest compared to conventional ODS. The current study demonstrated that it is very difficult to obtain F/M ODS grades with the expected characteristics by using LAM processes. Indeed, even if significant progress has been made, the powder melting stage strongly limits, for the moment, the possibility of obtaining fine and dense precipitation of nano-oxides in these steels.
