Abstract:Recent advancements have shown great promise in utilizing wire‐fed direct energy deposition (DED) for building aluminum alloy structures. However, utilizing the wire‐fed DED approach for fabricating metal matrix composite structures remains a significant challenge. This study used a wire‐based AM process to successfully produce a one‐dimensional boron nitride nanotube (BNNT)‐reinforced aluminum composite with high strength. An Al‐BNNT electrode was developed in‐house. The microstructural changes that occurred … Show more
