Abstract

En 中文
Crystallographic texture is one of most important microstructural factors for controlling structural and functional properties of metallic materials. In metal additive manufacturing (AM), tailoring crystallographic texture enables new opportunities to achieve site-specific properties, which is largely overlooked by the AM community. Herein, we provide a comprehensive review on the state-of-the-art of AM texture engineering. Firstly, the effects of melt pool dynamics, thermal gradients and cooling rates on the crystallographic texture of AM-built materials are discussed. Two representative AM techniques—laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) and laser-directed energy deposition (LDED)—are taken into considerations. Then, three typical in-situ AM texture engineering strategies, including tailoring scan trajectories and build-path, adjusting energy-related process parameters, and adopting field-assisted AM techniques, were overviewed. Additionally, novel applications achieved by AM texture engineering, for instance low-modulus β-Ti implant alloys, creep-resistant Ni-based superalloys, fatigue-robust austenitic steels, and highly conductive copper components, are discussed in detail. Overall, this work aims to advance the understanding and implementation of crystallographic texture engineering in AM, thereby accelerating the adoption of AM techniques for multiple applications.
