Description

Stainless Steel, Powder, -150 Mesh is a finely divided metallic material characterized by its high surface area and excellent corrosion resistance. This product is engineered for applications requiring precise material properties and consistent particle size distribution, offering superior performance in advanced manufacturing processes. It is essential for industries such as additive manufacturing (3D printing), metal injection molding (MIM), surface coating, and the production of specialized alloys and composites.

Application

• Additive Manufacturing (3D Printing): Used as a primary feedstock in powder bed fusion (PBF) and binder jetting processes to create complex, high-strength metal components.
• Metal Injection Molding (MIM): Serves as a key raw material for producing small, intricate, and high-volume metal parts with excellent mechanical properties.
• Surface Coating & Thermal Spray: Applied via plasma spray or HVOF techniques to provide wear-resistant, anti-corrosion, or decorative coatings on various substrates.
• Powder Metallurgy: Used in the pressing and sintering of structural parts, filters, and self-lubricating bearings.
• Welding & Brazing: Employed as filler material or in specialized welding rods for joining and repair applications.
• Chemical & Catalytic Processes: Utilized as a catalyst or catalyst support in certain industrial chemical reactions due to its stability.
• Research & Development: Serves as a base material for developing new alloys, composites, and functional materials in laboratory settings.

Quality Control

Our stainless steel powder is produced and tested under stringent quality management protocols to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and performance reliability. Key parameters such as particle size distribution, chemical composition, flowability, and apparent density are rigorously controlled. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing lot-specific results is provided with every shipment.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Due to its nature of being easily oxidized, this material must be stored under an inert atmosphere (e.g., argon or nitrogen) in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area. Keep away from sources of ignition, heat, and incompatible materials such as strong acids or oxidizers. The recommended storage temperature is 15-25°C.
