Microstructure-driven formation of a chemically graded corrosion layer in PBF-LB/M fabricated dual-phase Mg–8Li–0.5Ca wt.% ultralight alloy

In this study, a dual-phase Mg-8Li-0.5Ca wt.% ultralight alloy was successfully fabricated using powder bed fusion - laser beam/metals (PBF-LB/M). The as-built microstructure consisted of α(Mg) enriched with microscale Mg-Ca precipitates and β(Li) containing nanosized needle-like...
