Densification, Microstructure, and Mechanical Properties of Additively Manufactured 2124 Al–Cu Alloy by Selective Laser Melting

Owing to its high specific strength and low density, Al–Cu alloys have been extensively used in aerospace for lightweight components. Additive manufacturing techniques such as selective laser melting, which offers geometric freedom, is suitable for topology-optimized designs. In this study, the effe...
