K465 Alloy Powder
K465 alloy powder is a nickel-based superalloy that offers high strength and corrosion resistance at elevated temperatures. It is widely used in aerospace, power generation, and chemical processing industries.
K465 Alloy Powder: Composition, Properties, Applications, and Specifications
K465 has become a popular choice for aerospace, power generation, and chemical processing industries where components are subjected to high temperatures or aggressive environments. It allows complex geometries to be 3D printed for optimal performance.
This article provides detailed information on the composition, properties, applications, specifications, availability, processing, and comparisons of K465 superalloy powder for additive manufacturing.
The nominal composition of K465 nickel-based superalloy powder is given below:
| Element | Weight % |
| Nickel (Ni) | Balance |
| Chromium (Cr) | 15 – 17% |
| Cobalt (Co) | 9 – 10% |
| Molybdenum (Mo) | 3% |
| Tantalum (Ta) | 4.5 – 5.5% |
| Aluminum (Al) | 5 – 6% |
| Titanium (Ti) | 0.5 – 1% |
| Boron (B) | 0.01% max |
| Carbon (C) | 0.03% max |
| Zirconium (Zr) | 0.01% max |
| Niobium (Nb) | 1% max |
Nickel forms the base of the alloy and provides a face-centered cubic matrix for high temperature strength. Elements like chromium, cobalt, and molybdenum contribute to solid solution strengthening and enable precipitation hardening.
Aluminum and titanium are added to form gamma prime precipitates Ni3(Al,Ti) to provide hardness and creep resistance up to 700°C. Tantalum provides solid solution strengthening and forms carbides for grain structure control. Boron facilitates precipitation of complex carbides.
The balanced composition of K465 nickel superalloy powder results in a combination of strength, ductility, corrosion resistance, and weldability required for high performance additive manufactured components. The optimized levels of alloying elements can be tailored based on final part requirements.

K465 Alloy Powder Availability
K465 superalloy powder can be sourced from major suppliers like:
| Manufacturer | Product Name |
| Praxair | TA1 |
| Carpenter Additive | Car Tech K465 |
| Sandvik Osprey | K465-TCP |
| Erasteel | Satellite AM K465 |
The alloy powder is sold in various sizes ranging from 1 kg containers for R&D purposes up to 1000 kg containers for production volumes. Prices range from $90-150 per kg based on quantity and manufacturer.
Lead times for procurement typically range from 2-8 weeks after order confirmation. Customized particle size distributions and special handling may require a longer lead time.
K465 powder inventory should be monitored closely and reordered well in advance of running out. Shortages can cause costly AM machine downtime. Consider spacing out orders over time to maintain stock.
K465 Alloy Powder Processing
Parameter Ranges for AM Processes:
| Process | Preheating Temp | Layer Thickness | Laser Power | Scan Speed | Hatch Spacing |
| DMLS | 150 – 180°C | 20 – 60 μm | 195 – 250 W | 600 – 1200 mm/s | 0.08 – 0.12 mm |
| EBM | 1000 – 1100°C | 50 – 200 μm | 5 – 25 mA | 50 – 200 mm/s | 0.1 – 0.2 mm |
DMLS = Direct metal laser sintering
EBM = Electron beam melting
A wider range of parameters allows flexibility to optimize for surface finish, build time, or mechanical properties
Preheating reduces residual stresses; higher for EBM due to higher temperatures
Slower scan speeds improve density but prolong build time
Fine hatch spacing reduces porosity but requires more scan passes
Post-Processing:
Removal of parts from build plate using EDM wire cutting
Removal of residual powder via glass bead blasting
Stress relief heat treatment at 870°C for 1 hour
HIP treatment at 1160°C under 100 MPa pressure for 4 hours
Age hardening heat treatment at 760°C for 10 hours
Benefits of Post-Processing:
HIP closes internal voids and minimizes porosity
Heat treatments relieve residual stress and achieve optimal hardness
Yields close to 100% dense parts with mechanical properties equivalent to cast and wrought
Additional hot isostatic pressing (HIP) and heat treatments can further enhance properties
Parameter selection, support structures, build orientation, post-processing steps are all optimizable based on AM technology used and properties required.

K465 Alloy Powder – Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What pre-processing steps are required for K465 powder?
A: K465 powder needs to be dried for 1-4 hours at 100-150°C to remove moisture absorbed during shipping and storage. Sieving between 20-63 microns will eliminate large particles that can cause recoater issues.
Q: Does K465 require hot isostatic pressing (HIP) post-processing?
A: HIP is recommended but not mandatory for K465. It helps close internal voids and achieve maximum density and mechanical properties. HIP at 1160°C under 100 MPa for 4 hours is typical.
Q: What heat treatments can be used to tailor K465 properties?
A: Solution treatment at 1150°C plus single or double aging between 700-850°C is used to optimize strength and ductility. Rapid cooling after solution treatment enhances properties.
Q: Is K465 superalloy weldable for repair purposes?
A: Yes, K465 can be welded using ER NiCrMo-10 filler metal. Solution treatment at 1175°C and aging at 845°C is required after welding to restore properties.
Q: What manufacturing defects can occur with K465 builds?
A: Lack of fusion porosity, cracking between layers, delamination, and distortion are potential defects requiring parameter optimization. Lower preheat and faster scan speeds increase risk.
Q: What finishing methods can be used on additively manufactured K465 parts?
A: Machining, shot peening, chemical etching, and electropolishing allow surface roughness improvement. This facilitates NDE inspection and improves fatigue life.
Q: Does K465 alloy powder require special storage precautions?
A: K465 powder rapidly absorbs moisture, so storage in sealed argon purged containers is required. Use within 1 week of opening container to prevent degradation.
Q: What safety precautions are needed when handling K465 powder?
A: K465 powder is not flammable but may cause skin/eye irritation. Use protective gloves, clothing, face shields. Avoid inhalation and install proper ventilation.
