Abstract
Metal additive manufacturing (MAM) offers unprecedented advantages in the fabrication of metals and alloys with complex geometry and unique microstructural features with hierarchical heterogeneity. The MAM process also induces a unique cell structure with high dislocation density and solute segregation at cell boundaries. Here, we propose an innovative utilization of a unique dislocation network to achieve superior mechanical properties through metastability engineering of high entropy alloy (HEA) and ferrous-medium entropy alloy (FeMEA). While the high dislocation density at cell boundaries contributes to the improvement of yield strength as additional barriers to dislocation movement, the solute segregation at cell boundaries can beneficially control the phase instability of the matrix in materials produced by MAM. Our results demonstrate that solute segregation at cell boundaries decreases the face-centered cubic phase stability in the matrix and activates the transition of the deformation mechanism from slip to metastable plasticity (i.e., transformation-induced plasticity). Furthermore, the high density of dislocation at cell boundaries also has an effect on not only yield strength enhancement but also on controlling kinetics of metastable plasticity, and it beneficially contributes to obtaining high ductility of the MAM-processed FeMEA. This work presents a new microstructural design strategy for beneficially customizing the material performance of high-quality products based on MAM-driven metastability engineering of an alloy with specific chemical composition.
About Tea Time Talk

AIMR’s Tea Time Talk is a kind of seminar aiming to promote exchange between world’s eminent researchers and young researchers at AIMR, held in a relaxed atmosphere at AIMR’s Friday Tea Time. The following researchers from around the world have given talks at this event so far, and participants have enjoyed discussion over a cup of tea.
