Novel Composite Powders with Uniform TiB2 Nano-Particle Distribution for 3D Printing

It is reported that the ductility and strength of a metal matrix composite could be concurrently improved if the reinforcing particles were of the size of nanometers and distributed uniformly. In this paper, we revealed that gas atomization solidification could effectively disperse TiB2 nanoparticle...
