Abstract

Based on a composition of 99.4 wt% AISI 316L stainless steel, 0.3wt% Ti and 0.3 wt% <TEX>$Y_2O_3$</TEX>, an austenitic ODS steel was fabricated by a process of mechanical alloying, hot isostatic pressing and rolling. Fine oxide particles were observed in the matrix, and their chemical formulations were determined to be <TEX>$Y_2Si_2O_7$</TEX> and TiO. Heat treatment of the cold-rolled sample at <TEX>$1200^{\circ}C$</TEX> induced an isotropic tensile behavior at room temperature and at <TEX>$700^{\circ}C$</TEX>. This result would be mainly attributed to the equiaxed grains that form as a result of the heat treatment for recrystallization.
