Fatigue and Corrosion Evaluation of L-PBF 316L Stainless Steel Having Undergone a Self-Terminating Etching Process for Surface Finish Improvement Open
The poor surface finish of as-printed (AP) laser powder bed fusion (L-PBF) 316L stainless steels has detrimental impacts on the resulting fatigue and corrosion performance. One postprocessing method, a self-terminating etching process (STE…

Sulfidation kinetics of titanium and Ti-6Al-4V with elemental sulfur Open
The sulfidation kinetics of titanium and Ti-6Al-4V (Ti64) using elemental sulfur were studied by measuring the amount of metal consumed instead of the change in mass or scale thickness. This metal consumption approach combines the paraboli…

Investigation of Reactive Silver Ink Formula for Reduced Silver Consumption in Silicon Heterojunction Metallization Open
Silver is the most expensive non-silicon component in photovoltaic cells. This is particularly salient for silicon heterojunction (SHJ) cells, which rely on large quantities of low-temperature silver pastes (LT-SP). SHJ cells would benefit…

Iodine-Based Sensitization of Copper Alloys to Enable Self-Terminating Etching for Support Removal and Surface Improvements of Additively Manufactured Components Open
Advances in selective laser melting (SLM) of metals in the past two decades have made metals additive manufacturing more accessible for industrial adoption. Despite printing process improvements, post-processing of SLM components has not i…
