Materials expansion includes high-temperature nickel alloys, aluminum, titanium, copper, refractory metals, carbon-fiber thermoplastics, biocompatible resins, and engineered porosity/surface textures.

Broadening materials availability is critical to expanding AM beyond its 'titanium and Inconel' perception. Copper AM (for EV heat exchangers), refractory metals (nuclear, hypersonic), and carbon-fiber thermoplastics (LFAM structural tooling) open new markets.
