Formation of topologically closed packed phases within CMSX-4 single crystals produced by additive manufacturing

The homogeneity of single crystals produced by additive manufacturing (AM) is much higher than that of single crystals produced by the standard investment casting process. Aim of this paper is to investigate the influence of this homogeneity on the formation kinetics of topologically closed packed (...
