Additive manufacturing (AM) enables the processing of heterogeneous materials with customised architectures to improve strength-ductility synergy. Herein, layerwise-heterostructured high-strength steels were processed by AM two steel powders following designed architectures. The fabricated hierarchical characteristics at layer, melt-pool and grain scales, exhibit good combination, reaching a strength 1.32 GPa together an elongation 7.5%. increased attributes hetero-deformation induced...
Metallic alloys with high strength and large ductility are required for extreme structural applications. However, the achievement of ultrahigh often results in a substantially decreased ductility. Here, we report strategy to achieve strength-ductility synergy by tailoring alloy composition control local stacking fault energy (SFE) face-centered-cubic (fcc) matrix an L12-strengthened superlattice alloy. As proof concept, based on thermodynamic calculations, developed non-equiatomic...
Eliminating cracks is a big challenge for the selective laser melting (SLM) process of low-weldable Nickel-based superalloy. In this work, three scanning strategies snake, stripe partition, and chessboard partition were utilized to prepare René 104 Ni-based superalloy, which cracking behavior residual stress investigated. The results showed that had significant effects on cracking, stress, relative density SLMed with more partitions boosted emergence cracks, as high-density occurred in these...
Abstract Isotropy in microstructure and mechanical properties remains a challenge for laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) processed materials due to the epitaxial growth rapid cooling LPBF. In this study, high-strength TiB 2 /Al-Cu composite with random texture was successfully fabricated by using pre-doped powder. A series of advanced characterisation techniques, including synchrotron X-ray tomography, correlative focussed ion beam–scanning electron microscopy (FIB-SEM), scanning transmission...
This study investigates the effects of heat treatment (HT) time (one, two, and three weeks) on microstructure magnetocaloric effect (MCE) laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) NiMnSn alloys. Increasing HT improves chemical homogeneity, decreases local misorientation imparted by LPBF process. is also associated with an enhancement in maximum magnetic entropy change (ΔSm) values around martensitic transformation temperature (TM), which increases from 0.2 J kg−1 K−1 to 0.45 under 1 T applied field....
