The use of recyclable, non-toxic and non-critical alloying elements has become increasingly important in the last years. In particular, the volatile prices of Ni and Cu, and the increasing demand for these elements from the electromobility sector can eventually boost the prices, eliminating the price-competitiveness advantage of PM-steels. This work shows the newest advances in the investigation of PM-steels produced from more sustainable base powder alternatives (such as AstCrS), combined with Fe-Mn-Si-based masteralloys (i.e. a hybrid-alloy approach). Chemical analysis, CCT diagrams and mechanical properties are presented for steels with different hybrid compositions, sintered and heat-treated under different conditions.
