To develop high-strength Al alloys for selective laser melting (SLM) additive manufacturing,
we designed a series of Al-Mg (-Si)-Sc-Zr alloys and additively manufactured them using …

The application of conventional Al–Zn–Mg–Cu alloys for selective laser melting (SLM) of
additive manufacturing is hindered by hot cracking during the SLM process. In the present …

Abstract A novel Al-5Mg 2 Si-2Mg alloy was processed by selective laser melting (SLM) to
understand its representative features of microstructural evolution and mechanical …

Abstract 7xxx Al alloys such as Al-Zn-Mg-Cu are typical lightweight materials of excellent
mechanical performance. Their near-net-shape manufacturing by selective laser melting …

The metal additive manufacturing industry is rising and the interest in selective laser melted
