Abstract
A metal powder for 3D printer includes a plurality of metal particles. A particle size distribution of the plurality of metal particles has a maximum peak within particle diameters of 1 μm to 200 μm. The particle size distribution gives a difference D−Dof 10 μm or more between Dand D, Ddenoting a particle diameter in which a cumulative percentage is 90% in volume proportion, and Ddenoting a particle diameter in which a cumulative percentage is 10% in volume proportion.
