In this work Ni-free austenitic stainless steels with nanostructure were synthesized by mechanical alloying (MA), heat treatment and nitrogenation of elemental Fe, Cr, Mn and Mo microcrystalline powders. The phase transformation from ferritic to austenitic was confirmed by XRD analysis. The mechanical and corrosion properties of the produced biomaterials were investigated. Additionally, the biocompatibility of nickel-free austenitic stainless steels with nanostructure and microcrystalline 316L steel, were analyzed studying the behaviour of Normal Human Osteoblast (NHOst) cells from Cambrex (CC-2538). An enhancement of the properties due to the nanoscale structures in the bulk consolidated materials was observed.
