Scientists develop ‘designer’ titanium alloys using 3D printing

AU Manufacturing

A team of researchers from RMIT University and the University of Sydney has developed a new class of ductile and strong titanium alloys using a combination of alloy design and 3D printing. Our work may provide a template to mitigate these oxygen embrittlement issues through 3D printing and microstructure design,” Dr Chen said.
