| Abstract Scope |
Additive manufacturing is becoming a preferred manufacturing method for small batch manufacturing. Titanium-based AM is often chosen as a material for many applications. Much of the ongoing titanium-based AM research has focused Ti6Al4V due to its exceptional strength and heat treatability. However, commercially pure titanium can offer enhanced corrosion resistance as well as offer enhanced ductility. This alloy has not received a lot of attention with regards to AM processing. This work investigates the processability of Grade 2 Titanium through the Laser-Powder Bed Fusion process. The microstructural evolution of the alloy was characterized through three different heat treatments and the mechanical properties were determined. Lastly, fractography of the broken specimens were conducted to gain insight into the fracture mechanism. |
