Fatigue improvement of electron beam melting-fabricated biomedical Co–Cr–Mo alloy by accessible heat treatment

We significantly improved the fatigue properties of an electron beam melting (EBM)-fabricated biomedical Co–Cr–Mo alloy by a simple post-production heat treatment without any deformation process. The fatigue properties were improved by transforming the as-EBM-fabricated dual-phase structure (contain...
