An invention from researchers at The University of Queensland has overcome an industry challenge of producing titanium (Ti) alloys with high strength and high ductility. Alloys can be produced in-situ with an additive manufacturing (AM) approach and overcomes the problem of uniformly blending the various powders during preparation of the AM feedstock, thus creating high quality parts.
Key features
- High strength and ductility without compromising either of the mechanical properties
- Significant reduction of anisotropy
- Simple bucket chemistry-based modification
