On thermal properties of metallic powder in laser powder bed fusion additive manufacturing

Powder thermal properties play a critical role in laser powder-bed fusion (LPBF) additive manufacturing, specifically, the reduced effective thermal conductivity compared to that of the solid significantly affects heat conduction, which can influence the melt pool characteristics, and consequently,...
