Exemplary alloys may be particularly suited for additive manufacturing applications, and may comprise iron and one or more of: chromium (Cr), nickel (Ni), carbon (C), and copper (Cu). Exemplary alloys may have a majority microstructure that is martensite.

Stainless steel powders for additive manufacturing

Exemplary alloys may comprise, by weight percentage, 13.25% to 14.75% chromium; 4.5% to 5.5% nickel; 0.11% to 0.17% carbon; 0.01% to 0.31% titanium; and the balance of weight percent comprising iron and incidental elements and impurities. Exemplary methods may include conducting additive manufacturing with an atomized alloy powder to generate a manufactured article, where the atomized alloy powder may comprise, by weight percentage, 13.25% to 14.75% chromium; 4.5% to 5.5% nickel; 0.11% to 0.17% carbon; 0.01% to 0.31% titanium; and the balance of weight percent comprising iron and incidental elements and impurities.
