Heat Treatment Degrading the Corrosion Resistance of Selective Laser Melted Ti-6Al-4V Alloy

Abstract: Ti-6Al-4V alloy produced by selective laser melting (SLM) was reported to exhibit an inferior corrosion resistance compared with the traditionally processed Grade 5 alloy, due to the formation of high-energy metastable α′ martensite with regard to α martensite. This work manipulates the transformation of α′ martensite to α martensite by heat-treatment in SLM-produced Ti-6Al-4V alloy and studies the effect on its corrosion behavior using electrochemical tests and microstructural analysis. The electrochemical re… Show more

“…As a result, the element Al is in a low valence state and the α phase is vulnerable to corrode. The potentiodynamic measurements indicate that the EBM as‐produced Ti–6Al–4V samples have more corrosion resistance than wrought samples due to a higher fraction of β phase and greatly refined lamellar α / β phases (Figure ) . It is noted that the EBM‐produced Ti–6Al–4V alloy has a microstructure composed of α and β phases; such a microstructure is totally different from the typical microstructure comprised of α ′ and β phases in the SLM‐produced Ti–6Al–4V .…”

“…It is noted that the EBM‐produced Ti–6Al–4V alloy has a microstructure composed of α and β phases; such a microstructure is totally different from the typical microstructure comprised of α ′ and β phases in the SLM‐produced Ti–6Al–4V . Due to the difference in the microstructures produced by EBM and SLM, the AM‐produced Ti–6Al–4V alloy has shown different corrosion behaviors compared to those for the traditional Grade 5 alloy …”

“…The two factors caused the decrease in corrosion resistance of the SLM sample. Dai et al[48] also confirmed that the grain size was another factor affecting corrosion resistance of the SLM samples. For this study, with the increase in content of Cr, the content in HCP presents the upward tendency (35 vol.%, 56 vol.% and 98 vol.% in volume fraction for Coating I, Coating II and Coating III), accompanied with the decrease in content of Ti 2 Ni (65 vol.%, 44 vol.% and 7 vol.%).…”

“…In comparison to α ‐type Ti alloys, ( α + β)‐type Ti alloys are heat treatable, and hence, their mechanical properties can be optimized by heat treatment. The volume fractions and natures of α and β phases may vary according to the alloy chemistry, heat treatment temperature, and cooling rate . Previous works show that the strength of ( α + β)‐type Ti alloys can be improved by 30–50% via appropriate solution treatment and aging while their elastic moduli maintain at a similar level .…”
