Quasicrystalline Composites by Additive Manufacturing

Article Preview

Abstract:

Laser based powder bed fusion (LBPF) or selective laser melting (SLM) is making a leap march towards fabricating novel materials with improved functionalities. An attempt has been made here to fabricate hard quasicrystalline composites via SLM, which demonstrates that the process parameters can be used to vary the phases in the composites. The mechanical properties of the composite depend on their constituents and hence can be varied by varying the process parameters. The results show that SLM not only produces parts with improved functionalities and complex shape but also leads to defined phases and tunable properties.
