abstract = {Tungsten is an outstanding material and due to its
properties like highest melting point and tensile strength
of all natural metals and its high thermal conductivity it
is a prime candidate for being used in very harsh
environments and for challenging applications like X-ray
tubes or as plasma facing material (PFM) in fusion reactors.
Unfortunately, high brittle to ductile transition
temperature and hardness represent a great challenge for
classic manufacturing processes. Additive manufacturing (AM)
of tungsten could overcome these limitations and resulting
design restrictions. However, AM of tungsten also poses
challenges in particular related to the production of
material of high density and mechanical stability. Using a
selective electron beam melting and a base temperature of
1000 °C of the powder, we were able to produce tungsten
with a theoretical density of 99 $\%$ without the need of
any post-treatment like a second melting step or a
redensification by e.g. hot isostatic pressing (HIP). The
surface morphology, microstructure, hardness, thermal
conductivity and stability against severe transient heat
loads were investigated with respect to the relevant
building parameters and compared with recrystallized
standard W. Besides simple test geometries also more
sophisticated ones like monoblocks were successfully
realized illustrating the potential of AM for fusion.},
