Additive manufacturing of Ti6Al4V alloy: A review

TL;DR: In this paper, the recent progress on Ti6Al4V fabricated by three mostly developed additive manufacturing techniques-directed energy deposition (DED), selective laser melting (SLM) and electron beam melting (EBM)-is thoroughly investigated and compared.
Journal ArticleDOI

Review on titanium and titanium based alloys as biomaterials for orthopaedic applications.

TL;DR: Various attempts to improve upon these properties like different processing routes, surface modifications have been inculcated in the paper to provide an insight into the extent of research and effort that has been put into developing a highly superior titanium orthopaedic implant.

Effect of the build orientation on the mechanical properties and fracture modes of SLM Ti–6Al–4V

TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of the microstructure on the tensile properties of additive manufacturing (AM) of Ti alloys has been investigated. And the authors found that the mechanical anisotropy of the parts was discussed in relation to the crystallographic texture, phase composition and the predominant fracture mechanisms.

Segregation mediated heterogeneous structure in a metastable β titanium alloy with a superior combination of strength and ductility

TL;DR: In this work, instead of addressing the segregation problems, the segregation was utilized to develop a novel microstructure consisting of a nanometre-grained duplex (α+β) structure and micrometre scale β phase with superior mechanical properties.

On the use of a sub-scale thermomechanical simulator to obtain accurate tensile properties of (α + β)- and β-processed Ti–6Al–4V

TL;DR: The tensile properties obtained using an electrothermal mechanical tester (ETMT) and sub-scale specimens have been rigorously evaluated by comparing the results with those obtained using ASTM Standards over a controlled range of microstructures and temperatures (up to 300 °C) for both (α+ β)- and β-processed Ti-6Al-4V.

the use of advanced characterization to study transitions across solid state interfaces

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors highlight the coupling of recently developed advanced characterization techniques, such as high resolution scanning transmission electron microscopy, carried out in an aberration-corrected microscope, and atom probe tomography, to address the structural and compositional transition at the atomic scale across solid-solid interfaces.
