Due to its unique characteristics selective laser melting offers the possibility to manufacture highly complex and functional parts out of otherwise difficult processable materials. One example is β-type titanium alloys, which have very promising properties for various engineering applications. Two novel β-type alloys Ti-42Nb and Ti-20Nb-6Ta were compared with commercially pure titanium and Ti-6Al-4V ELI alloy in this study. All four lightweight materials were SLM-processed and the microstructure and corrosion resistance were investigated. While pure titanium and Ti-6Al-4V showed only the martensitic α′-phase, Ti-42Nb consists solely of the β-phase and Ti-20Nb-6Ta of the orthorhombic martensitic α″-phase. Potentiodynamic polarization showed a superior corrosion resistance for both β-type alloys, whereas Ti-42Nb performed slightly better than Ti-20Nb-6Ta. Released V and Al could be clearly observed for the Ti-6Al-4V ELI alloy by mass spectrometry due to corrosion processes, in contrast the release of Nb or Ta was hardly detected for the new alloys.
