Towards Selective Laser Melting of High-Density Tungsten

Selective laser melting (SLM) of tungsten (W) is challenging due to its high melting point and brittleness, resulting in defects including balling phenomenon, porosity and cracks. In this work, high-density crack-free SLM W was fabricated by employing cost-effective powders modified through air jet...
