Selective laser melting of Al-12Si alloy: Enhanced densification via powder drying

Unlike conventional powder metallurgy techniques, selective laser melting (SLM) is characterised by its fully melting process and very high heating and cooling rates and little has been known about the influence of powder surface state on the SLM process. In this study, the influence of low temperat...
