Heterogeneities-guided alloy design by and for 4D printing
Superior high-performance materials and CO2-free production technologies are key enablers to solving Europe’s current and future societal challenges [1]. In this context, additive manufacturing (AM) as one of the disruptive, green production technologies of our time “is expected to become a key manufacturing technology in the sustainable society of the future” [2]. However, alloys specifically designed for AM are rarely available, which prohibits AM from reaching its full potential. In contrast to conventional alloys and processing, alloys processed by AM are highly microstructurally heterogeneous. It is the aim of HeteroGenius4D to use the process-inherent conditions of highly precise,…
