Abstract
The efects of process parameters and aging treatment on the microstructure and mechanical properties of selective lasermelting (SLM) fabricated high Mg-content Al-Mg-Sc-Zr aluminum alloy were systematically studied. Our experiment resultsshow that the samples exhibit good processability with porosity less than 1%. The increase of Mg content in Al-Mg-Sc-Zris benefcial to reduce the texture of the alloy. The laser scanning speed has a large infuence on the Vickers hardness ofas-fabricated samples. The maximum microhardness of as-fabricated sample reaches 148±2 HV with a compression yieldstrength of 342±7 MPa. After aging treatment, the distinction in microhardness of the samples obtained under diferent laserscanning speed is obviously reduced, and the mechanical properties of the samples are further improved with a maximummicrohardness of 175±5 HV and a maximum compressive yield strength of 476±10 MPa, which are superior to the knownAl-Mg-Sc-Zr alloy with same Sc and Zr content fabricated by SLM. In this study, a novel high Mg-content Al-Mg-Sc-Zraluminum alloy specifcally for SLM with good processability and mechanical properties was reported.
