Abstract
With high strength and good fatigue resistance, Al-Cu alloys such as AA2024 are widely used in the aerospace and automotive industries. However, the system's susceptibility to hot cracking and other solidification defects hinders its development in metal additive manufacturing (AM). A nano-treated AA2024 deposition, with the addition of TiC nanoparticles, is successfully additively manufactured without cracks. Microstructural analysis suggests nanoparticles not only mitigate the hot cracking sensitivity but also significantly refine and homogenize grains, resulting in an average size of 23.2 ± 0.4 μm. Microhardness profiles show consistent mechanical performance along the build direction, regardless of cyclic thermal exposure. Finally, excellent tensile strength and elongation up to 428 MPa and 7.4% were achieved after heat treatment. The combined results show a great promise of nano-treating in high-strength aluminum AM.
