Selective laser melting (SLM) has previously been shown to be a viable method for fabricating biomedical implants; however, the surface chemistry of SLM fabricated parts is poorly understood. In this study, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) was... Read More about Surface chemistry of Ti6Al4V components fabricated using selective laser melting for biomedical applications.

The effect of laser remelting on the surface chemistry of Ti6al4V components fabricated by selective laser melting (2016)
Journal Article
Vaithilingam, J., Goodridge, R. D., Hague, R. J., Christie, S. D., & Edmondson, S. (2016). The effect of laser remelting on the surface chemistry of Ti6al4V components fabricated by selective laser melting.

Surface remelting/skin scanning of components is generally performed during the selective laser melting (SLM) process to improve the surface quality of a part. However, the chemical effects of surface remelting are not well understood. In this study,...
