Microstructure evolution and mechanical properties of selective laser melted bulk-form titanium matrix nanocomposites with minor B4C additions

Crack-free and almost fully dense (≥99%) bulk-form titanium matrix nanocomposites in-situ synthesized from a ball-milled mixture of Ti-6Al-4V and B4C powders were achieved through an optimized selective laser melting (SLM) process. The effects of minor B4C addition on microstructure evolution, hardn...
