Ti6Al4V ELI Grade 23 20-63um
SLM / Metal · Titanium · Metallic titanium
Titanium and its alloys are characterised by a high strength-to-density ratio and high corrosion resistance. Grade 23 ELI contains aluminium and vanadium, which produce metastable α and β phases, and has a reduced level of interstitial elements (oxygen and iron) compared with Grade 5, for better ductility and fracture toughness.
