Additive manufacturing of the Ti–La system. The approach of selecting a composition Ti-2wt.% La permits to explore an uncommon path of α formation in titanium alloys, by altering the regular Burgers-related β → α transformation. a Portion of the Ti–La phase diagram adapted from29,50, indicating the compositions used for selective laser melting. b, c Overview of the as-built microstructures for these compositions, namely commercially pure titanium grade 1 (CP Ti) taken as reference, and the Ti-2wt.% La alloy (Ti-2La), respectively.
