In laser-foil-printing additive manufacturing, 3D metallic glass structures can be built by laser welding of amorphous foils, layer by layer, upon a crystalline metal substrate. Here, in this paper, weldability studies for laser welding of Zr_52.5Ti₅Al₁₀Ni_14.6Cu_17.9 amorphous foils onto a Ti-6Al-4V (Ti 6-4) or Zr 702 substrate are conducted. After laser welding, the weldments are analyzed using X-ray diffractometer, optical microscope, scanning electron microscope equipped with energy dispersive spectroscopy and micro-hardness tester. The results show that Zr 702 is a suitable substrate for Zr-based metallic glass structure since crack-free weld joints can be obtained owing to the formation of ductile α-Zr, while Ti 6-4 is not an appropriate substrate since it has high cracking susceptibility due to the formation of a large amount of hard and brittle intermetallics near the foil-substrate interface. It was found that the mixing between melted substrate and foil is not uniform but exhibits a distinct “swirl” pattern. The swirl structure is more pronounced in Ti 6-4 than in Zr 702 substrate which may contribute to its high cracking susceptibility. The aforementioned mixing leads to partial crystallization of the first amorphous layer; however, fully amorphous is achieved in the additional welding layers.
