Heat treatment effects on tribocorrosion resistance of Inconel 718® alloy produced by conventional and laser powder bed fusion methods
摘要
The article presents a study of the tribocorrosion phenomenon and its effects on Inconel 718 alloy produced conventionally by extrusion and additively manufactured using the laser powder bed fusion method. In addition, the samples were subjected to a heat treatment process to change their properties. The research was carried out using the pin-on-disk method in 3.5% NaCl. Based on the study, it was found that the material made with additive technology is more resistant to tribocorrosion phenomenon, and the difference from conventionally made material is about 50%. The synergistic effect between friction and corrosion (ΔZ) occurred. However, heat treatment in the AA-2 variant ensures higher hardness and reduces purely mechanical wear (ZM) and the synergy effect (ΔZ).
