In this work, the three compositions of hexagonal boron nitride (10, 15 and 20 vol. %)-embedded 316L stainless steel (SS316L/h-BN) composites were prepared by a conventional powder metallurgy technique and then sintered at varying temperatures of 1100 to 1250°C for 60 min in H2 atmosphere. The h-BN content and sintering temperature were found to affect the microstructure and hardness of the composites. The hardness decreased with increasing h-BN content and was improved by increasing the sintering temperature. Microstructure results revealed that the boride phase was formed at the grain boundary at the sintering temperature higher than 1150°C and the boride phase formation was observed to transform the h-BN in the composites.
