The influence of annealing at 1200 °C for 2, 4 and 8 h on the carbide microstructure of AISI M2 type high-speed steel obtained by both the foundry and conventional metallurgy technologies has been studied. The primary focus was on the kinetics of eutectic carbide decomposition and dissolution in both the cast and wrought M2 high-speed steels under the effect of high temperature.

The article is devoted to the metallographic analysis of the M2 high-speed steel granules. The study is based on the investigation of the microstructure of the M2 high-speed steel granules obtained by melt atomization. It is demonstrated that granules of similar size can harden both by chemically separating and chemically non-separating mechanism. These last ones have supersaturated solid solution structure of the liquid melt composition, a dispersed dendritic-cellular structure and an increased microhardness HV = 10267±201 MPa.

Cracks and delamination, resulting from residual stresses, are a barrier in the world of additive manufacturing and selective laser melting (SLM) that prohibits the use of many metals in this field. By preheating the baseplate, thermal gradients are lowered and stresses can be reduced. In this work, some initial tests were performed with M2 high speed steel (HSS). The influence of preheating on density and mechanical and physical properties is investigated. The paper shows many promising results for the production of SLM parts in materials that are very sensitive to crack formation and delamination. When using a preheating of 200 °C, crack-free M2 HSS parts were produced with a relative density of 99.8%.

This paper reports on the compatibility of waste rubber as binder for M2 High Speed Steel injection moulding. The feedstock was prepared at a powder loading of 65 vol.% using 22μm M2 High Speed Steel powder and the binders consisting of 55wt.% paraffin wax, 21wt.% polyethylene, 14wt.% waste rubber and 10wt.% stearic acid. The specimens were then sintered in vacuum and 95%N2/5%H2 atmosphere. The sintering in vacuum atmosphere occurred within a temperature range from1200°C to 1260°C, whilst the 95%N2/5%H2 atmosphere was carried out within a temperature range from 1220°C to 1300°C. The effects of the sintering atmosphere and temperature on the physical properties, mechanical properties and microstructure were investigated.
