Introduction: Titanium alloys containing the β phase have much better corrosion resistance. Some alloying elements, such as Mo, stabilize this phase. Among the Ti alloys that contain this element, the Ti-10Mo alloy is of particular importance. If this alloy is produced using selective laser melting (SLM), it will be an approach that is user-friendly due to the nature of the process. Methods: Samples were printed by SLM process. The constituent phases were determined by XRD. The microstructure was evaluated using optical and scanning electron microscopes.... by Arezoo Pourshoja, karim Avak, Maziyar Azadbeh, Mohamadreza Etminanfar, Mehdi Ojaghi
