Selective laser melting of hybrid ex-situ/in-situ reinforced titanium matrix composites: Laser/powder interaction, reinforcement formation mechanism, and non-equilibrium microstructural evolutions
Hybrid ex-situ/in-situ reinforced titanium matrix composites (TMCs) were fabricated by selective laser melting (SLM). The optimized pre-processed 5 wt% B4C/Ti-6Al-4V composite powder feedstock and the un-reinforced Ti-6Al-4V powder were consolidated using energy densities in the range of 50–75 J/mm3...
