title = "Metallurgical and corrosion property of additive manufactured titanium alloy-Ti6Al4V",
abstract = "Additive manufacturing (AM) is an important manufacturing technology that has changed the way products are designed and manufactured. Laser Metal Deposition (LMD), an AM technology, has the capability of producing components using a 3-Dimensional CAD model, through a layer by layer formation process just like any other AM technology. In this study, the influence of the scanning speed on the corrosion property of Titanium alloy-Ti6Al4V using LMD process was investigated. The scanning speed varied between 0.02 m/s and 0.14 m/s while other processing parameters were kept constant. The electrochemical corrosion test was conducted in sodium chloride (NaCl) solution. The result revealed that the corrosion resistance property was found to increase with the scanning speed.",

note = "Funding Information: The authors acknowledged the support of National Laser Centre, Centre for Scientific and Industrial Research (CSIR), Pretoria, South Africa for the laser equipment used in this project. Funding Information: The Ti6Al4V substrate used in this study contains 6 w% of aluminium, 4 w% of vanadium, supplied by VSMP-AVISMA corporation, a Russian based company. The Ti6Al4V powder used in this study is of particle size range between 120 - 320µm and it is spherically shaped atomized powder that was supplied by F.J Broadmann and Co Louisiana. The LMD process was achieved using the LMD experimental set-up consisting of a Kuka robot carrying a 3.0KW Nd:YAG laser attached to it end effector and with coaxial nozzles for powder delivery. This experimental set-up is available at the National Laser Centre (NLC) at the Council for Scientific and Industrial Research (CSIR) Pretoria, South Africa.
