In this study, (diamond + TiC) reinforced Ti6Al4V titanium matrix composites (DT-TMCs) were fabricated using the directed energy deposition (DED) technique to enhance multiple properties of the Ti6Al4V alloy. The phase composition, microstructure, microhardness, wear resistance, and thermal conducti...
