Morphology and elemental composition of titanium powders for additive machines obtained by electrospark dispersion of OT4 alloy metal waste in propyl alcohol

Based on the conducted experimental studies aimed at studying the morphology and elemental composition of titanium powders for additive machines obtained by electrospark dispersion of metal waste of the OT4 alloy in propyl alcohol, it is shown that the process of rapid crystallization of molten OT4 in a liquid working medium contributes to spherical shaping of the particles containing the main elements of Ti and Al. Spherical titanium powder materials obtained from the titanium alloy OT4waste can be effectively used in additive manufacturing.
