Influence of Heat Treatments on Microstructure and Hardness of a High-Strength Al-Zn-Mg-Cu-Zr Alloy Processed by Laser Powder Bed Fusion
Processing 7075 alloy by laser powder bed fusion is complex due to hot cracking. Zr addition is one of the solutions to reduce this susceptibility to cracking and permit the elaboration of crack-free parts. This study explored the microstructural and hardness evolutions of an Al-Zn-Mg-Cu-Zr alloy wi...
