Selective laser reaction sintering

  "id": "MLC-T-ADM-000340",
  "term": "Selective laser reaction sintering",
  "field": "Additive manufacturing and 3D printing",
  "definition": "An additive manufacturing process, abbreviated as SLRS, that uses a laser to initiate a chemical reaction within a powder bed, forming a solid part. The laser energy causes precursor materials to react and sinter together, creating a new compound with desired properties. This technique differs from traditional selective laser sintering (SLS) by relying on a chemical transformation rather than just melting and fusing existing powder particles.",
