Abstract

To understand the corrosion performance of additive-manufactured Ni-based in various corrosion media during the actual engineering application environment, the corrosion properties of NiFeCrMo alloys were investigated in 3.5 wt.% NaCl solution, 1 mol/L H2SO4 solution, and 1 mol/L KOH solution, using potentiodynamic polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. The electrochemical measurement results revealed that the additive-manufactured NiFeCrMo alloys have higher corrosion resistance in all three solutions, compared with the as-cast samples. The results of the scanning electron microscope confirmed that the degree of additive-manufactured NiFeCrMo alloys after potentiostatic polarization in all three solutions is less serious. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy analysis revealed that the enhancement of the corrosion resistance for the additive-manufactured NiFeCrMo alloys is attributed to the modification of the composition of the passive films. Additive manufactured processing promotes the enrichment of the element of Cr or Mo in the passive film and it suppresses the formation of the oxidation of the element of Fe, leading to higher stability of the passive films. The reason for the higher corrosion resistance of the additive-manufactured NiFeCrMo alloys was related to the enrichment of the element of Cr, as well as the lower content of the elements of Ni and Fe near the grain boundaries, which are beneficial to forming a more compact passive film. The combined results are essential for the applications of high-strength Ni-based as structural materials in a corrosion environment.
