Selective Laser Melting of Ti6Al4V-2%Hydroxyapatite Composites: Manufacturing Behavior and Microstructure Evolution

In this work, selective laser melting of Ti6Al4V (Ti64) and 2 wt.% hydroxyapatite (HA) composites was performed with the purpose of osseointegration enhancement and biological fixation between implants and bone tissue. The microstructural evolution and mechanical properties were analyzed by using X-...
