Cryogenic Strength-Ductility of 316L Stainless Steel with In-Situ Nickel Alloying

TIF image data from a study investigating the effect of nickel content on the mechanical properties of 316L stainless steel fabricated via laser powder bed fusion. The dataset, authored by Hongliang Xu and last updated in May 2026, includes results for three alloy variants tested at 87 Kelvin. Yield strength values for the samples range from 688 MPa to 958 MPa.

Use Cases

• Analyzing microstructure-property relationships based on nickel content variations described in the study
• Training models to predict cryogenic mechanical performance based on alloy composition and processing method
• Benchmarking additive manufacturing process parameters for metastable austenitic steels
• Studying the suppression of martensitic transformation as a function of stacking fault energy

Strengths

• Includes specific, quantified mechanical property results (e.g., yield strength of 801 MPa for 1 wt.% Ni alloy)
• Focuses on a controlled experimental variable (nickel content) with three distinct alloy compositions
• Data is associated with a clear, peer-reviewed-style research methodology described in the abstract

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment
• The 34.3 MB size suggests the dataset is relatively small in scale
