A detailed microstructural and corrosion analysis of magnesium alloy WE43 manufactured by selective laser melting
2020
Abstract The production of magnesium alloy WE43 was achieved by selective laser melting (SLM). The alloy was investigated after SLM, hot isostatic pressing (HIP), and solutionising heat treatment. The microstructure and corrosion behaviour of the specimens were carefully characterised, whilst assessed and contrast relative to the conventionally cast alloy counterpart. The SLM prepared specimens possess a unique microstructure comprising fine grains growing with a strong [0001] texture along the building direction with a low fraction of process-induced and metallurgical defects, reaching
