摘 要:Additive manufacturing enables processing of functionally graded materials(FGMs) with flexible spatial design and high bonding strength. A steel-copper FGM with high interfacial strength was developed using laser powder bed fusion(LPBF). The effect of laser process parameters on interfacial defects was evaluated by X-ray tomography, which indicates a low porosity level of 0.042 % therein. Gradient/fine dendritic grains in the interface are incited by high cooling rates, which facilitates interface strengthening. Multiple mechanical tests evaluate the bonding reliability of interface; and the fatigue tests further substantiate the ultrahigh bonding strength in FGMs, which is superior to traditional manufacturing methods. Mechanisms of the high interfacial bond strength were also discussed.
