ABSTRACT
Bimetallic structures of nickel (Ni) and commercially pure titanium (CP Ti) were manufactured in three different configurations via directed energy deposition (DED)-based metal additive manufacturing (AM). To understand whether the bulk properties of these three composites are dominated by phase formation at the interface, their directional dependence on mechanical properties was tested. X-ray diffraction (XRD) pattern confirmed the intermetallic NiTi phase formation at the interface. Microstructural gradient observed at the heat-affected zone (HAZ) areas. The longitudinal samples showed about 12% elongation, while the same was 36% for the transverse samples. During compressive deformation, strain hardening from dislocation accumulation was observed in the CP Ti and transverse samples, but longitudinal samples demonstrated failures similar to a brittle fracture at the interface. Transverse samples also showed shear band formation indicative of ductile failures. Our results demonstrate that AM can design innovative bimetallic structures with unique directional mechanical properties.
