Effect of Annealing Temperature on Microstructure and Dry‐Sliding Behavior of Powder Bed Fusion–Laser Beam Ti6Al2Sn4Zr6Mo Alloy

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Heat treatment parameters critically affect the wear resistance of powder bed fusion–laser beam (PBF‐LB)‐produced Ti–6Al–2Sn–4Zr–6Mo alloy. This study found that optimizing annealing temperature allows to obtain a tailored microstructure, which enhances the dry‐sliding behavior by forming a stable and functional mechanically mixed layer (MML), ensuring
