| Abstract Scope |
The Ti6Al4V alloy is widely used in industries such as aerospace and biomedical implants due to its excellent mechanical properties and biocompatibility, though it faces challenges in shaping. While additive manufacturing addresses many of these shaping issues, it introduces challenges like anisotropy and limited potential for further strengthening. This study examines the effects of adding boron and nitrogen to Ti6Al4V, both individually and in combination. The results of this study reveal that the simultaneous addition of boron and nitrogen significantly improves the alloy’s mechanical properties, including strength and anisotropy control, compared to using either element alone. These results suggest that co-adding boron and nitrogen could be an effective strategy for enhancing the mechanical properties of Ti6Al4V alloys fabricated using additive manufacturing.
