This article combines experimental and numerical methods to study the crystallization behavior of bulk metallic glass (BMG) during laser powder bed fusion (PBF-LB/M). It reveals that BMG crystallization in PBF-LB/M is a localized phenomenon mainly caused by short-range in situ heat treatment. This work provides important insights into the crystallization kinetics of BMGs during PBF-LB/M and demonstrates the usefulness of simulation software in guiding the process development for BMGs and BMG composites.
Laser powder bed fusion (PBF-LB/M) has been used to fabricate bulk metallic glass (BMG) parts. However, there is still a lack of understanding about the crystallization behavior of BMGs during PBF-LB/M. This article aims to combine experimental and numerical methods to gain a more comprehensive understanding of the BMG crystallization kinetics during PBF-LB/M. The material used in this work is an industrial-grade BMG commercially known as AMZ4 (Zr59.3Cu28.8Al10.4Nb1.5, at.%). The samples prepared by PBF-LB/M were characterized by optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and nanoindentation. Simulations were performed using our in-house developed software with setups mimicking the PBF-LB/M experiment. The experimental and numerical results are compared and discussed in detail. The most important finding is that BMG crystallization in PBF-LB/M is a very localized phenomenon, mainly caused by short-range in situ heat treatment. Here, short-range in-situ heat treatment refers to concomitant heat treatment that occurs during the processing of the current melt line, very few subsequent melt lines, and very few subsequent layers. This work provides insight into the BMG crystallization phenomenon that occurs during PBF-LB/M processing, especially its underlying crystallization kinetics. Furthermore, this work demonstrates the usefulness of our in-house developed simulation software in guiding PBF-LB/M process development for BMGs and BMG composites.
