Quantification and characterisation of porosity in selectively laser melted Al–Si10–Mg using x-ray computed tomography

We used X-ray computed tomography (CT), microscopy and hardness measurements to study Al–Si10–Mg produced by selective laser melting (SLM). Specimens were subject to a series of heat treatments including annealing and precipitation hardening. The specimen interiors were imaged with X-ray CT, allowin...
