Aluminium alloys and nanocomposites manufactured via friction stirring and 3D printing processes

In recent years, fabricating aluminium matrix composites (AMCs) reinforced with nanoparticles via Selective laser melting (SLM) has drawn attention due to the potential in improving mechanical properties. However, the formation of undesirable intermetallic phases and porosity defects are challenging...
