Additive manufacturing of Ti-6Al-4V with added boron: Microstructure and hardness modification
(Trans Tech Publications, 2018)Titanium alloy composites with titanium boride (TiB) discontinuous reinforcement have shown improved performance in terms of strength, stiffness, and hardness. Producing this composite through selective laser melting (SLM) ... -
The effect of heat treatments on microstructure and mechanical properties of as-extruded Ti-6Al-4V alloy rod from blended elemental powders
(Trans Tech Publications, 2018)In this study, Ti-6Al-4V bars were first prepared by extrusion of powder compacts from blended powder mixtures in the beta phase region, then the as-extruded bars were heat-treated following four different conditions: beta ... -
On microstructural evolution and mechanical properties of Ti-5Al-5V-5Mo-3Cr alloy synthesised from elemental powder mixtures
(Elsevier, 2018)In this paper, we explored to prepare a multi-compositional titanium alloy, Ti-5Al-5V-5Mo-3Cr (Ti-5553), by powder compact extrusion from elemental powder mixtures, and investigate the microstructure variation during the ... -
Effect of minor titanium addition on copper/diamond composites prepared by hot forging
(Springer Verlag, 2018)Copper/diamond composites have great potential to lead the next generation of advanced heat sink materials for use in high-power electronic devices and high-density integrated circuits because of their potential excellent ... -
Producing High-Quality Titanium Alloy by a Cost-Effective Route Combining Fast Heating and Hot Processing
(Springer, 2018)Powder metallurgy is a very attractive method for producing titanium alloys, which can be near-net-shape formed and have freedom in composition selection. However, applications are still limited due to product affordability. ...
