Abstract Scope |
Molybdenum based refractory materials are well suited to benefit from the layer-by-layer processing advantages that come from additive manufacturing. Nonetheless, obtaining high density and defect free material is a nontrivial task which requires high processing temperatures along with clean inert environments. Here we present our work on the processing of various molybdenum based refractory alloys using additive manufacturing to produce fully dense, crack-free material. In addition, we investigate the resulting process-sensitive microstructures and corresponding property relationships. |
